Pangasinan Schools Suspend Classes in 8 Towns, 2 Cities Due to Tropical Depression Luis

CALASIAO, Pangasinan — Eight towns and two cities in Pangasinan have suspended face-to-face classes on Monday (August 3) in all public and private schools because of the threat of heavy rains brought by tropical depression Luis and an enhanced southwest monsoon (habagat). The suspension was made through executive orders signed by the mayors of the respective cities. Tropical depression Luis is expected to bring moderate to heavy rains in the northern and central parts of Luzon, including Pangasinan. The suspension of classes is a precautionary measure to ensure the safety of students, teachers, and school personnel from potential hazards such as flooding and landslides. Local government units are closely monitoring the weather situation and are prepared to implement further measures if necessary. Residents are advised to stay informed about weather updates and to take necessary precautions.
