Weather bureau PAGASA said Severe Tropical Storm Leon (international name Kong-Rey) may intensify to Typhoon Category, but landfall may be limited to the Batanes group of islands. Leon was last spotted 725 kilometers east of Echague, Isabela at 5 p.m. It is moving slowly at 15 kph, with center winds of 100 kph and gusts of 125 kph. Strong to storm-force winds extend 620 km from the center. Leon isn’t expected to cause massive flooding as Kristine did but will still bring heavy rains in Northern Luzon.

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology raised the alert level on Bulusan Volcano to 1 (low-level unrest) after a phreatic eruption at dawn Monday that lasted 24 minutes.
