'Betty' lingers near tip of Luzon

TYPHOON 'Betty' is almost stationary in the waters off the tip of Northern Luzon and is expected to unleash rains that could generate floods, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said on Monday.

Hardly moving at 20 kilometers per hour (kph), Betty will continue to enhance the southwest monsoon and bring rain to a wide swathe of the country, Esperanza Cayanan, Pagasa's officer in charge, said.
