Floods hit parts of Manila

Keanu Jahns carded a sensational seven-under-par 64 to wrest a one-shot lead over Enrico Gallardo in the rain-hit ICTSI Forest Hills Classic at the Nicklaus course here yesterday.

Keanu Jahns continued his stellar form from his near-miss at Splendido Taal in July, carding a sensational seven-under-par 64 to wrest a slim one-shot lead over a surging Enrico Gallardo in the rain-hit ICTSI Forest Hills Classic.

Tropical Storm Helen (International name: Pulasan) is set to leave the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) by Wednesday night, September 18, but it will still enhance the southwest monsoon or habagat, triggering rain and winds across the country. 

Twenty individuals died due to the combined effects of the enhanced southwest monsoon, locally known as habagat, and tropical cyclones "Ferdie" and "Gener."

While no tropical cyclone wind signal is in effect, both tropical cyclones are still expected to enhance the southwest monsoon, triggering rain across different parts of the country.
