Based on the Severe Weather Bulletin No. 19, "Ulysses” will continue crossing the landmass of Central Luzon. 

PAGASA said the typhoon is forecast to emerge over the western seaboard of Zambales Thursday morning. 


"The typhoon is forecast to slightly weaken while crossing Central Luzon due to frictional effects in the presence of the Sierra Madre and Zambales Mountain Ranges. However, it is likely to remain a typhoon during its traverse of the Luzon landmass," read the bulletin.
