PHTropical Depression Maymay, known internationally as Kujira, has continued to weaken as of August 6, 2026, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa). The storm, currently located near Gamu, Isabela, has reduced its maximum wind speed to 45 km/h with gusts up to 75 km/h, compared to earlier readings of 55 km/h and gusts up to 90 km/h. Although the storm is expected to weaken further and potentially downgrade to a remnant low by Thursday afternoon or evening, Wind Signal No. 1 remains active in 15 areas across Northern Luzon, indicating a minimal to minor threat to life and property. Pagasa warns that heavy rainfall and severe winds may still affect regions outside the storm's landfall zone, with the storm projected to cross northern Luzon's mountainous terrain before emerging over Isabela's eastern coastal waters within 12 hours.
