MANILA, Philippines —  Tropical Storm Leon (international name: Kong-rey) has maintained its strength as it decelerates over the Philippine Sea on Monday morning177bet, October 28, with tropical cyclone wind signals up over some areas that are still recovering from effects of Tropical Storm Kristine.

As of 4 a.m. AM, the center of Leon was estimated at 840 kilometers east of Central Luzon, with maximum sustained winds of 85 kilometers per hour (kph) near the center, gustiness of up to 105 kph.

The storm is currently moving westward at a slower pace of 10 kph.

While it hoisted Signal No. 1 over portions of Northern Luzon, state weather bureau PAGASA said Signal Nos. 2 or 3 would be the highest possible warnings to be raised as Leon barrels across the Philippine area of responsibility.

The outer rainbands of Leon may affect Extreme Northern Luzon, depending on its proximity during its north northwestward movement over the Philippine Sea.
