The storm’s center was located 390 kilometers east of Daet, Camarines Norte, and it is expected to move west-northwestward at 15 kph.

PAGASA said Kristine could make landfall in Isabela or northern Aurora on Wednesday evening, Oct. 23, or Thursday morning, Oct. 24, potentially as a severe tropical storm.

In anticipation of the storm, PAGASA has issued Wind Signal No. 2 over Catanduanes, eastern portion of Camarines Norte, eastern portion of Camarines Sur, eastern portion of Albay, and eastern portion of Sorsogon.
