Impasugong, Bukidnon — The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical Astronomical Services Administration disclosed on Tuesday that all storm signals in Northern Mindanao were lifted after tropical storm "Kabayan" weakened into a low pressure at the vicinity of this town.
In its latest bulletin, the state weather bureau said that "Kabayan's" strength waned as it was spotted northeast of Impasugong town.
Forecast rainfall are generally higher in elevated or mountainous areas. Under these conditions, flooding and rain-induced landslides are likely especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards.
Meantime, the Philippine Coast Guard in the Caraga Region has lifted its temporary suspension of sea travel in the area early Tuesday morning.
However, the weather bureau said Caraga will continue to experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers due to the LPA and shearline.
