Romblon Governor Jose Riano issues a reminder to residents of the province to remain vigilant as Typhoon Aghon sweeps across the Sibuyan Sea, bringing heavy rainfall and strong winds to the region.
With the onset of inclement weather due to the typhoon, Governor Riano emphasizes the importance of caution, especially for those venturing outside their homes. Fishermen, in particular, are urged to exercise extreme care as rough seas and high waves pose significant risks during storms of this magnitude.
The Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO) has been placed on high alert, coordinating closely with local government units to ensure preparedness and response measures are in place.
Emergency shelters have been identified, and relief supplies are on standby to assist affected communities if needed.
Authorities advise residents to stay indoors and avoid unnecessary travel until the weather improves. Additionally, individuals living in flood-prone or landslide-prone areas are urged to remain vigilant and heed evacuation orders if necessary to ensure their safety.
