PAGASA's flood and rain advisories for Mountain Province, the wind in Sagada right now, and the official channels for typhoon warnings and the road.
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Sagada and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.
PAGASA issues flood and rain advisories for the Cordillera when the rivers and slopes are likely to be affected. This page reads those advisories for Mountain Province — the ones that matter for the low-lying barangays and the mountain road — alongside the wind in Sagada right now. When a typhoon is tracking in, the wind signals and the storm bulletins come from PAGASA directly; the official channels below are where to watch for those.
As of Fri 10 July at 6:24.
Under present weather conditions, At 3:00 AM today, the center of Typhoon "INDAY" {BAVI} was estimated based on all available data at 640 km East of Basco, Batanes (20.1°N, 128.1°E) with maximum sustained winds of 150 km/h near the center and gustiness of up to 185 km/h. It is moving Northwestward at 20 km/h. Southwest Monsoon affecting Palawan, Visayas, and Mindanao. The 12-hour rainfall forecast is Light to moderate to heavy rains and thunderstorms. WATERCOURSES LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED : + **Apayao** - Rivers and its tributaries particularly Upper Abulug and Upper Pamplona. + **Ifugao** - All rivers and its tributaries + **Benguet** - Rivers and its tributaries particularly Upper Bauang. + **Kalinga** - All rivers and its tributaries + **Mountain Province** - All rivers and its tributaries + **Abra** - Rivers and its tributaries particularly Upper Abra, Tineg and Ikmin.
People living near the mountain slopes and in the low lying areas of the above mentioned river systems and the **Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Councils** concerned advised to take necessary precautionary measures.
A light breeze (about 9 km/h, gusts to 29), out of the west.
Strongest gusts forecast over the next 24 hours: about 44 km/h. Wind words follow the Beaufort scale. This is a weather model’s forecast for the hour, not a measurement — exposed ground above town will see more.
Where the warnings come from
The wet months run roughly June to October — typhoon season — when heavy rain swells the Chico's tributaries and loosens the slopes above the road. A flood advisory for Mountain Province is the cue to check the low-lying barangays and to expect the Halsema and the Sagada spur to run slower, or to be cut.
One mountain corridor connects Sagada to Bontoc, Baguio and Banaue, and it is landslide-prone in the wet. When PAGASA flags flooding, pair it with the road channels and neighbours' reports before a long trip — a clear morning in town says nothing about a slide two hours down the road.
