Signal No.1 raised
over Neg. Occ.
BY CARLA GOMEZ
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) yesterday raised storm signal number one over Negros Occidental as tropical depression Seniang approached.
But Melvin Fierro Sr. of the Negros Occidental Provincial Disaster Team said Seniang could still change course and a more accurate projection on whether the province will be hit is more likely to be known today.
Tropical depression "Seniang" slightly intensified as it moved closer towards Northeastern Mindanao, PAGASA reported at 5 p.m. yesterday.
