“Wind signals will continue to be lowered or lifted in the succeeding bulletins as Karding further weakens and moves across Central Luzon,” PAGASA said.
“Under the influence of Karding, a marine gale warning remains in effect over the seaboards of Luzon,” it added.
PAGASA earlier urged residents of Metro Manila and nearby provinces to “take action”, saying severe flooding was possible due to rains from the tropical cyclone.
It issued a “red” or heavy rainfall warning for Metro Manila, Tarlac, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, Bulacan, and Rizal on Sunday at 11 p.m.
An orange warning was raised over Quezon (General Nakar, Infanta, Mauban, Real), Zambales, Bataan, Laguna, Batangas, and Cavite, with threatening floods as its associated hazard.
