MANILA, Philippines — Weather forecasters issued on Wednesday morning heavy rainfall warnings over parts of Luzon due to Severe Tropical Storm Jolina (Conson).
In an 8 a.m. advisory, PAGASA raised red rainfall warning over the following areas:

A red rainfall warning is issued when observed rainfall is more than 30 millimeters within one hour or if downpour has continued for the past three hours and is more than 65 mm.
Under this, community response is needed as severe flooding is expected in flood-prone areas.

Flooding is threatening in areas under the orange alert.
Meanwhile, yellow rainfall warning was hoisted over the following areas:

- Bataan
- Pampanga
- Bulacan
