As the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) warned that “Uwan” could reach super typhoon category within 24 hours as it approaches the Luzon landmass, several classes in Metro Manila are suspended on Sunday and Monday, Nov. 9 and 10.
Some local governments also suspended work in city offices, except for those providing essential services.
Marikina
In Marikina City, Mayor Maan Teodoro said that the suspension covered all levels in private and public schools in the city, including NSTP classes and other school-related activities on Sunday and Monday, to ensure the safety of all students from the expected onslaught of the typhoon.
