TROPICAL Storm “Falcon” (international name: Khanun) has slowed down as it moves westward over the Philippine Sea, the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said in its 11 a.m. bulletin on Saturday.
“This tropical cyclone will remain over the Philippine Sea and far from the Philippine landmass throughout the forecast period,” the state-run weather bureau said.
As of 10 a.m., the center of Falcon was estimated at 1,315 kilometers east of Central Luzon, with maximum sustained winds of 65 kilometers per hour (kph) near the center and gustiness of up to 80 kph.
