CEBU CITY, Philippines – For local authorities here, the threats of Typhoon Mawar should not be taken for granted.
Chances, however, remained slim for the typhoon, which will be named as ‘Betty’ once it enters PAR, to make any landfall in the country. In turn, Central and Eastern Visayas may experience light to moderate rains with localized thunderstorms. Police Lt. Col. Gerald Ace Pelare, PRO-7 spokesperson, said these police officers were trained for disaster response.The Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office has also alerted local government units in Cebu province, particularly in the north, to regularly monitor weather conditions.
