The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration warns of possible landslides and flashfloods in these provinces and has placed them under public storm warning signal No. 1 as of Tuesday.
Landslides and flash-floods may also happen in coastal and low-lying areas as well as on mountain slopes in Catandanues, Albay, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Marin-duque, Quezon and Quirino where signal No. 1 was also issued.
The center of Labuyo at 10 a.m. Tuesday was 160 kilometers east of Daet, Camarines Norte.
