Tropical Storm #DantePH has maintained its strength while accelerating north northwestward over the Philippine Sea, continuing to enhance the Southwest Monsoon or habagat, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).

As of 10 a.m. on July 24, 2025, the center of Tropical Storm #DantePH was located approximately 735 km east northeast of Itbayat, Batanes (24.3°N, 127.9°E).

It is moving north northwestward at a faster pace of 30 km/h.

#DantePH has maximum sustained winds of 75 km/h near the center, gustiness of up to 90 km/h, and a central pressure of 994 hPa. Strong to gale-force winds extend outward up to 550 km from its center.

The storm is expected to continue moving west northwestward over the Philippine Sea as it approaches the Ryukyu Islands. It may exit the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) later this afternoon or evening.

No Wind Signal is currently in effect due to #DantePH.
