Where the wind blows. This weather equipment called “aerovane” installed at the weather station and observatory of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration in Legazpi, Albay measures wind velocity and direction during typhoons. One of several PAGASA weather stations strategically located across Bicol region, the Legazpi weather forecasting facility provides reliable weather forecasting data especially during typhoons. DOST Secretary Estrella F. Alabastro made a stop at PAGASA in Legazpi during the recent Region V leg of the Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (SET UP) regional visit. [Joy M.
