July 28, 2011 by cd · Comments Off
Tropical Storm Juaning has moved out from the Philippine Area of Responsibility according to Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical System Administration (PAGASA) said Thursday.
The last “Juaning” bulletin from PAGASA was issued at 11 a.m. this morning wherein the weather disturbance was last located at 370 km West Northwest of Laoag City and is now packing maximum winds of 95 kph near the center and gustiness of up to 120 kph. It is moving West Northwest at 24 kph.
All public storm signals have now been lowered.
Meanwhile, another low pressure has formed into a tropical depression and is named “Kabayan.” The storm is believed to be stronger than Juaning.
Although Kabayan is being expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) by Friday, forecasters reportedly said that it will not make a landfall like Juaning. However, the cyclone will enhance the southwest monsoon which brings rains in affected areas this weekend.

Philippine Azkals More Accustomed to Play in the Rain
July 28, 2011 by cd · Comments Off
Can a wet and rainy Rizal Memorial Stadium an advantage to our very own Azkals with their match against the Kuwait Al-Azraq this afternoon?
In a report by Dyan Castillejo on Bandila last night, it could help the Philippine Azkals to hit some goals because they are more accustomed to play in the rain unlike their Kuwaitis counterpart.
Not to mention the home advantage because it has been proven in the past that the Azkals play exceptionally well when they are in their home land.
The Azkals struggled against the Kuwaiti heat in their 3-0 loss to Al-Azraq last Sunday morning, the first leg of their FIFA qualifying match. This could be the other way around now that the second leg of the match is being held in Manila.
Another plus factor for the crucial win by the Azkals today is the presence of defender Aly Borromeo and midfielder Stephan Schrock. Aly and Stephan are expected to provide more defensive and offensive options for the Azkals.
The 2 Azkals sat out the 1st game against Kuwait due to the 1-game suspension they received in the series versus Sri Lanka.
The Azkals need at least a 4-0 win against Kuwait to advance in the 3rd round of the FIFA World Cup qualifiers. The pessimists believe it’s impossible. But when adrenaline kicks in with national pride, a miracle is never impossible.
