Precautionary measures in Western Visayas

Local governments in Capiz province, part of the Western Visayas region, have canceled classes and work at all levels starting Monday due to the expected impact of Tino. The move follows continuing weather advisories and growing concern over strong winds and heavy rain.

Coastal restrictions and sea travel suspension

The Philippine Coast Guard has paused all sea travel in Surigao del Norte province and nearby island routes, citing unsafe sea conditions as the storm moves west-northwest toward the Visayas area.

Tino is currently a tropical depression outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR), expected to enter by Sunday and may strengthen into a typhoon by Tuesday.
