by

Tropical Storm Pilandok is forecast to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on September 3, 2026, according to PAGASA’s 5 p.m. bulletin on September 2. However, the enhanced southwest monsoon (habagat) will continue to bring rains over Luzon and the Visayas, while haze from Indonesia affects western sections of the Visayas and Mindanao. Quezon City and Metro Manila residents should stay alert as the enhanced southwest monsoon may bring occasional heavy rains, flooding, and disrupted commutes. The haze from Indonesia could also affect air quality, so residents, especially those with respiratory conditions, should monitor updates and take precautions. No specific evacuation or suspension orders have been announced for Quezon City, but residents should monitor PAGASA bulletins and local advisories. Keep emergency kits ready, avoid flood-prone areas, and check air quality reports if haze worsens; use N95 masks if needed.
