Due to Paeng, Zambales, Bataan, Aurora, Pangasinan, Batanes, and the northern portion of Cagayan including Babuyan Islands will continue to experience moderate to heavy rains, PAGASA said.

Metro Manila, Cordillera Administrative Region, CALABARZON, MIMARPOPA, Camarines Provinces, Western Visayas, and the rest of Cagayan Valley and Central Luzon may also have light to moderate with at times heavy rains.

"Except in areas with significant antecedent rainfall or those still experiencing persistent heavy rainfall, flooding and rain-induced landslides are likely to slowly subside," PAGASA said.

Paeng was last estimated 225 kilometers west northwest of Iba, Zambales or 240 kilometers west of Dagupan City, Pangasinan.

It had maximum sustained winds of 85 kph near the center and gustiness of up to 105 kph, moving west northwestward at a speed of 25 kph.

Based on PAGASA's latest forecast track, Paeng is forecast to leave the Philippine Area of Responsbility (PAR) Monday morning or afternoon.

It may also reintensify into a severe tropical storm as it moves over the West Philippine Sea in the next 24 hours.

Paeng left at least 48 people killed, 40 injured and 22 missing in the country. More than 932,000 people were affected by the 16th storm to hit the Philippines, the NDRRMC said.
