A new tropical storm, which weather forecasters named Huaning, entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility after Typhoon Gorio left early Sunday morning.

As of 5pm, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) forecaster Aldczar Aurelio said Huaning slightly intensified and accelerated.

Huaning was last spotted at 215 km northwest of Basco, Batanes with winds of 80 kph and gusts up to 110 kph. It was forecast to move north at 24 kph.

Aurelio said Huaning will continue to enhance the southwest monsoon that will bring moderate to occasionally heavy rains over the western section of northern and central Luzon.

Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal Number One was raised over Batanese, Ilocos Norte and northwestern Cagayan, including the Babuyan Group of Islands, said Aurelio.

It is expected to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility Monday afternoon. Aurelio said good weather may be experienced starting Tuesday.

He said the weather bureau is not expecting any cyclones by the next few days.

"We may experience 2-3 cyclones by August," he added.
