The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) reported that Typhoon Uwan continues to weaken as it moves northwestward away from the Ilocos Region on November 10, 2025.

At 4:00 PM, the center of Typhoon Uwan was located 175 kilometers west of Sinait, Ilocos Sur, with maximum sustained winds of 120 km/h near the center, gustiness of up to 150 km/h, and a central pressure of 975 hPa.

The typhoon is moving northwestward at 10 km/h, with strong to typhoon-force winds extending outward up to 850 kilometers from the center.

Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal (TCWS) No. 2 remains in effect over Batanes, Cagayan including Babuyan Islands, parts of Isabela, Apayao, Abra, Kalinga, Mountain Province, Ifugao, Benguet, Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, portions of Pangasinan, and northern Zambales, where gale-force winds pose minor to moderate threats to life and property.

TCWS No. 1 is raised over the rest of Isabela, Quirino, Nueva Vizcaya, Aurora, Nueva Ecija, Zambales, Bataan, Tarlac, Pampanga, Bulacan, Metro Manila, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, Quezon including Polillo Islands, Occidental and Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Calamian Islands, Camarines Norte, and parts of Camarines Sur, where strong winds may cause minimal to minor impacts.

Outside these areas, gusty conditions reaching strong to gale-force strength are expected over Palawan, Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, Dinagat Islands, SOCCSKSARGEN, and parts of Davao today, most of Luzon tomorrow, and Batanes and Ilocos provinces by Wednesday.

PAGASA also warned of moderate to high risks of storm surge reaching 1 to 3 meters in low-lying coastal communities of Ilocos Region, Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, Occidental Mindoro, and Calamian Islands within the next 12 hours.

The typhoon is forecast to follow a recurving path, turning northwestward today, northward tomorrow, and northeastward to eastward in the coming days. A brief re-intensification may occur before Uwan weakens further as it exits the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) tonight or early tomorrow, possibly re-entering PAR on Wednesday before making landfall in Taiwan.

Authorities urged residents in high-risk areas to heed evacuation orders and follow instructions from local officials to ensure safety against heavy rainfall, severe winds, and storm surge.
