According to PAGASA, the rainfall level in Cebu is among the highest logged this season, prompting alerts for possible flooding and landslides in low-lying and mountainous areas.

Local disaster response teams have been placed on standby, with barangay-level monitoring intensified to ensure timely evacuation if necessary.

The Cebu City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (CDRRMO) has advised residents to remain vigilant and avoid crossing rivers or flood-prone zones.

Authorities also reminded the public to monitor official weather bulletins and refrain from spreading unverified information on social media.
