But Neneng's trough or extension will continue to trigger scattered rains even if it is already out of the Philippine Area of Responsibility

MANILA, Philippines – Tropical Depression Neneng left the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) before dawn on Tuesday, September 11.

In a bulletin issued 5 am on Tuesday, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said Neneng is already 295 kilometers west of Basco, Batanes, moving west southwest at a slightly faster 20 kilometers per hour (km/h) from the previous 15 km/h.

The tropical depression slightly intensified as it left PAR. It now has maximum winds of 60 km/h from the previous 55 km/h and gustiness of up to 75 km/h from the previous 65 km/h.

Signal No. 1 has been lifted in Batanes, where Neneng brought occasional rains with gusty winds.

But the trough or extension of the tropical depression will continue to trigger scattered rains, ranging from light to heavy, in Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, the Cordillera Administrative Region, and Cagayan Valley.
