The suspension of classes comes in response to the significant impact of Typhoon Enteng and the ongoing southwest monsoon, which have caused severe rainfall and flooding in the affected regions. Despite the typhoon moving away, the southwest monsoon continues to bring adverse weather conditions, including heavy rain and strong winds.
Local authorities and weather agencies have advised residents to remain vigilant and prepared for further weather disturbances. Schools and communities in these areas are encouraged to monitor updates from local government units and the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) for any additional instructions or changes in weather conditions.
As always, the safety of students and residents is the top priority. Authorities urge everyone to stay informed and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety during this period of inclement weather.
