PAGASA said Paeng is forecast to track west northwestward through Sunday morning. It will traverse Cavite area then cross the southern portion of Bataan.

It warned that the storm may maintain its strength as it moves across Luzon landmass and may further intensify once it emerges over the West Philippine Sea.

Earlier Saturday, Paeng made landfall over Buenavista, Quezon, then over Santa Cruz, Marinduque and over Sariaya, Quezon.
