AS THE temperature continues to soar with the onset of the dry hot season, the Department of Health Central Visayas (DOH 7) urged the public to heed heat index reports released by state weather bureau, Pagasa.Shelbay Blanco, DOH 7 medical officer, emphasized the importance of taking the heat index seriously as it provides crucial information on the level of discomfort caused by combined heat and humidity.The heat index or “feels-like” temperature combines air temperature and humidity to indicate how hot the weather would feel to the human body.Blanco, during a news forum at the Philippines News Agency Central Visayas on Wednesday, March 6, 2024, said the heat index reflects the body’s response to prevailing weather conditions. As temperatures and humidity rise, the body’s ability to cool down decreases, increasing the risk of heat-related illnesses.Blanco said heat indices pose health hazards, especially for vulnerable groups like the elderly, children, and those with medical conditions.Extended exposure to high temperatures can lead to dehydration, heat cramps, and even life-threatening heatstrokes.He said when the heat index ranges from 27 to 32 degrees Celsius, this falls under the caution category. This indicates that prolonged exposure makes fatigue possible, and continued activity may lead to heat cramps.Between 32 to 41 degrees Celsius, the heat index is classified under the category of extreme caution suggesting that heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible, and further activity may result to a heatstroke.The heat index is considered dangerous when it reaches the range of 41 to 54 degrees Celsius.At this level, heat cramps and exhaustion are highly likely, and heat stroke becomes probable with continued activity.Finally, exceeding 54 degrees Celsius marks extreme danger, indicating that stroke is imminent.In an interview, Alfredo Quiblat Jr., head of Pagasa’s Visayas Station in Mactan Island, said Wednesday’s heat index was at 35 degrees Celsius. Quiblat said Pagasa expects the temperature to rise on Thursday and Friday at 36 degrees Celsius. Last Tuesday, the heat index was recorded at 33 degrees Celsius.El NiñoQuiblat said Pagasa expects the temperature to further rise in the coming weeks and Cebu’s heat index will shoot up to 45 to 47 degrees Celsius, particularly in May, when the strongest effects of the ongoing El Niño phenomenon will be felt.“Without El Niño, the heat index could rise to 45 degrees Celsius, so during El Niño it could go higher,” he said.Pagasa said El Niño raises sea-surface temperatures, impacting global weather patterns by shifting precipitation, temperature and atmospheric circulation, ultimately causing reduced rainfall.Decreased rainfall in provinces can devastate agriculture, resulting in crop failures and economic losses due to water scarcity for irrigation.Meanwhile, health experts underscore the importance of taking precautions during high heat index periods.Individuals are advised to keep themselves hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day and to avoid alcoholic and caffeinated beverages as they contribute to dehydration.Additionally, they should seek out cool spaces, especially during the hottest hours, whether it’s through air-conditioning or fans. If neither option is available, individuals should take cool showers to lower their body temperature.Wearing lightweight, loose-fitting clothing in light colors to deflect heat and avoid dark colors and heavy fabrics that can trap heat is also encouraged.To minimize heat exposure, individuals should limit outdoor activities, particularly between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and take breaks in the shade or indoors when needed. / KJF Online Betting Philippines Philippines THE Department of Education (DepEd) 7 has mandated all schools under basic education to shift to alternative delivery modes, as face-to-face (F2F) classes were suspended until further notice. In a phone interview on Saturday, April 6, 2024, DepEd 7 Director Salustiano Jimenez told SunStar Cebu that his memorandum issued on Friday, April 5, was addressed to all public schools within Cebu Island, including public schools in highly urbanized cities.He said his memorandum was in line with the declaration of Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia on Friday to suspend F2F classes across the province due to the high heat index recorded in recent days that may potentially pose a risk to the health and safety of pupils and students while inside the schools.The heat index is the temperature the human body feels when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.Jimenez said he also took into consideration the inputs of parents and guardians, some of whom preferred F2F classes despite the present weather condition.He said his memorandum was also in line with DepEd Order 37 series of 2022 and Memorandum OUOPS 2024-04-02477. “Ang ato lang gihuna-huna nga there shall be balance sa learning sa mga bata ug ang safety sa tanan (We made sure that we balance the children’s learning and their safety),” he said. Jimenez said public schools in Cebu City will follow his memorandum unless Mayor Michael Rama comes up with a separate directive.It will be the same in chartered cities, such as Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu, he added. The DepEd 7 director said private schools’ administrators have the discretion to implement his memorandum. Public school teachers and administrators have been urged to shift to online classes or distance learning using printed and digitized modules as a delivery mode of learning, depending on the situation and location of the institution.However, he reminded parents and guardians to monitor the completion of the academic tasks of the children while at home. “Reminders sa mga ginikanan nga atimanon gyud ang atong mga bata... ilabi na basin maglakaw-lakaw sa gawas, mag-sige na noon og tabanog sa alas dose sa udtong tutok,” Jimenez said.(We would like to remind parents to make sure their children are studying... They might end up walking around outside or flying a kite at high noon.)Jimenez said the shift will not affect the number of required school days, as the days when students learn under the alternative mode of delivery are considered school days. The 2023-2024 school year is scheduled to end on May 31, he said.Governor Garcia’s order came after 22 local government units (LGUs), 20 of which are under the Provincial Government’s jurisdiction, declared that they were suspending F2F classes and modifying the delivery mode of learning.The 22 LGUs are the municipalities of Asturias, Badian, Balamban, Compostela, Consolacion, Cordova, Liloan, Medellin, Minglanilla, Poro, Ronda, San Fernando, San Remigio, Sibonga, Tabogon, Tabuelan, Tuburan, and the cities of Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu, Naga, Talisay and Toledo.They have implemented alternative delivery modes of learning, such as shifting to online or modular printed modes, adjusting to half-day class hours, and adopting a blended learning approach, based on the locations of schools, and considering internet connectivity. Mandaue City, which first implemented the blended learning approach, has altered it and mandated the suspension of F2F classes.The Cebu City Government, however, has granted school principals the discretion to suspend F2F classes. Mayor Rama also proposed a shift to partial F2F classes from 6 to 11 a.m.According to the weather bureau Pagasa Visayas’ forecast on Saturday, the heat index in Cebu was 38 degrees Celsius.A heat index that ranges from 42 degrees Celsius to 51 degrees Celsius is considered dangerous as it can cause heat cramps and exhaustion, and may even lead to a heat stroke, which can be potentially fatal. / EHP

THE Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) will be having dialogues with various members of the business community to discuss the importance of the water rate adjustment, which will finally be implemented on April 1, 2024.The rate adjustment will push through, according to Jose Daluz III, chairman of the MCWD board of directors.“At least we have one month to talk to them, explain to them. Manghangyo mi nga this is not something nga nag-increase mi. It is just an application of the prescribed rate of LWUA since 2010,” Daluz said in an interview on Monday, Feb. 12.He clarified that the water district is not jacking up rates, but is lifting the exemption on the Local Water Utilities Administration’s (LWUA) prescribed rate guidelines set way back in 2010.He said MCWD did not need to seek LWUA’s approval; rather they only informed the agency that they would be imposing the prescribed rate.Daluz said the rate adjustment, which will affect only commercial and industrial customers, was supposed to take effect last Dec. 1, 2023, but they decided to defer it due to the holiday season.According to a SunStar Cebu report on Nov. 19, 2023, the current rates for consumers -- residential, commercial and industrial -- for the first 10 cubic meters of water consumed is P15.20 per cubic meter.Beyond 10 cubic meters, or from 11-20 cubic meters, the rate is P16.80 per cubic meter; from 21-30 cubic meters, P19.80, and for usage exceeding 30 cubic meters, the rate is P48.40 cubic meter.Under the LWUA’s prescribed rate, the first 10 cubic meters will be P30.40 per cubic meter for commercial consumers and P45.60 for industrial consumers.Around 85 percent of the water district’s customers are residential, while the remaining 15 percent are composed of commercial and industrial customers. Daluz also pointed out that the adjustment that was supposed to take effect last December is separate from the rate hikes that the MCWD had asked the LWUA to approve, which included the 60 percent that should have taken effect last July 1 and another 10 percent that was supposed to be implemented in the middle of this year.Daluz said they will no longer pursue these rate hike petitions.He said the MCWD will allot the whole month of March to engage in a dialogue with business chambers and establishments within its franchise jurisdiction after it was informed that the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) had submitted its position regarding the rate adjustment directly to LWUA.SunStar Cebu reached out to CCCI president Charles Kenneth Co to comment on the matter, but he had yet to issue a statement as of press time.Meanwhile, Daluz said the MCWD has no choice but to implement the LWUA’s prescribed rate because MCWD will soon be purchasing water from desalination plants in Barangay Mambaling in Cebu City, Barangay Opao in Mandaue City and Barangay Catarman in Cordova.The desalination plant in Opao charges P73.86 per cubic meter. The ones in Mambaling and Catarman have yet to release their rates.Daluz admitted that commercial and industrial customers will be paying more for their water after April, but the move is crucial to support the water district’s ongoing infrastructure support and projects that will ensure a sufficient supply of water in Metro Cebu.ExemptionIn 2010, Daluz said, MCWD asked for an exemption as a policy to stay competitive after the water district lost a case against Margarita Adala.The loss prompted the earlier administration to uniformly charge its residential, commercial and industrial consumers, and not follow LWUA’s rate structure.On July 4, 2007, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Adala to supply water to three sitios in Barangay Bulacao.The ruling added that the MCWD has no “exclusivity” on water distribution in Metro Cebu, thus opening its operation to competition from private water suppliers. Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama replaced MCWD board members Daluz, Miguelito Pato and Jodelyn May Seno last Oct. 31 with Melquiades Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan and Nelson Yuvallos. But Daluz, Pato and Seno have refused to step down from their posts.Feliciano is the chairman of the Rama-appointed board.

Jimenez said public schools in Cebu City will follow his memorandum unless Mayor Michael Rama comes up with a separate directive.It will be the same in chartered cities, such as Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu, he added. The DepEd 7 director said private schools’ administrators have the discretion to implement his memorandum. Public school teachers and administrators have been urged to shift to online classes or distance learning using printed and digitized modules as a delivery mode of learning, depending on the situation and location of the institution.However, he reminded parents and guardians to monitor the completion of the academic tasks of the children while at home. “Reminders sa mga ginikanan nga atimanon gyud ang atong mga bata... ilabi na basin maglakaw-lakaw sa gawas, mag-sige na noon og tabanog sa alas dose sa udtong tutok,” Jimenez said.(We would like to remind parents to make sure their children are studying... They might end up walking around outside or flying a kite at high noon.)Jimenez said the shift will not affect the number of required school days, as the days when students learn under the alternative mode of delivery are considered school days. The 2023-2024 school year is scheduled to end on May 31, he said.Governor Garcia’s order came after 22 local government units (LGUs), 20 of which are under the Provincial Government’s jurisdiction, declared that they were suspending F2F classes and modifying the delivery mode of learning.The 22 LGUs are the municipalities of Asturias, Badian, Balamban, Compostela, Consolacion, Cordova, Liloan, Medellin, Minglanilla, Poro, Ronda, San Fernando, San Remigio, Sibonga, Tabogon, Tabuelan, Tuburan, and the cities of Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu, Naga, Talisay and Toledo.They have implemented alternative delivery modes of learning, such as shifting to online or modular printed modes, adjusting to half-day class hours, and adopting a blended learning approach, based on the locations of schools, and considering internet connectivity. Mandaue City, which first implemented the blended learning approach, has altered it and mandated the suspension of F2F classes.The Cebu City Government, however, has granted school principals the discretion to suspend F2F classes. Mayor Rama also proposed a shift to partial F2F classes from 6 to 11 a.m.According to the weather bureau Pagasa Visayas’ forecast on Saturday, the heat index in Cebu was 38 degrees Celsius.A heat index that ranges from 42 degrees Celsius to 51 degrees Celsius is considered dangerous as it can cause heat cramps and exhaustion, and may even lead to a heat stroke, which can be potentially fatal. / EHP licensed online casinos THE Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) will be having dialogues with various members of the business community to discuss the importance of the water rate adjustment, which will finally be implemented on April 1, 2024.The rate adjustment will push through, according to Jose Daluz III, chairman of the MCWD board of directors.“At least we have one month to talk to them, explain to them. Manghangyo mi nga this is not something nga nag-increase mi. It is just an application of the prescribed rate of LWUA since 2010,” Daluz said in an interview on Monday, Feb. 12.He clarified that the water district is not jacking up rates, but is lifting the exemption on the Local Water Utilities Administration’s (LWUA) prescribed rate guidelines set way back in 2010.He said MCWD did not need to seek LWUA’s approval; rather they only informed the agency that they would be imposing the prescribed rate.Daluz said the rate adjustment, which will affect only commercial and industrial customers, was supposed to take effect last Dec. 1, 2023, but they decided to defer it due to the holiday season.According to a SunStar Cebu report on Nov. 19, 2023, the current rates for consumers -- residential, commercial and industrial -- for the first 10 cubic meters of water consumed is P15.20 per cubic meter.Beyond 10 cubic meters, or from 11-20 cubic meters, the rate is P16.80 per cubic meter; from 21-30 cubic meters, P19.80, and for usage exceeding 30 cubic meters, the rate is P48.40 cubic meter.Under the LWUA’s prescribed rate, the first 10 cubic meters will be P30.40 per cubic meter for commercial consumers and P45.60 for industrial consumers.Around 85 percent of the water district’s customers are residential, while the remaining 15 percent are composed of commercial and industrial customers. Daluz also pointed out that the adjustment that was supposed to take effect last December is separate from the rate hikes that the MCWD had asked the LWUA to approve, which included the 60 percent that should have taken effect last July 1 and another 10 percent that was supposed to be implemented in the middle of this year.Daluz said they will no longer pursue these rate hike petitions.He said the MCWD will allot the whole month of March to engage in a dialogue with business chambers and establishments within its franchise jurisdiction after it was informed that the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) had submitted its position regarding the rate adjustment directly to LWUA.SunStar Cebu reached out to CCCI president Charles Kenneth Co to comment on the matter, but he had yet to issue a statement as of press time.Meanwhile, Daluz said the MCWD has no choice but to implement the LWUA’s prescribed rate because MCWD will soon be purchasing water from desalination plants in Barangay Mambaling in Cebu City, Barangay Opao in Mandaue City and Barangay Catarman in Cordova.The desalination plant in Opao charges P73.86 per cubic meter. The ones in Mambaling and Catarman have yet to release their rates.Daluz admitted that commercial and industrial customers will be paying more for their water after April, but the move is crucial to support the water district’s ongoing infrastructure support and projects that will ensure a sufficient supply of water in Metro Cebu.ExemptionIn 2010, Daluz said, MCWD asked for an exemption as a policy to stay competitive after the water district lost a case against Margarita Adala.The loss prompted the earlier administration to uniformly charge its residential, commercial and industrial consumers, and not follow LWUA’s rate structure.On July 4, 2007, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Adala to supply water to three sitios in Barangay Bulacao.The ruling added that the MCWD has no “exclusivity” on water distribution in Metro Cebu, thus opening its operation to competition from private water suppliers. Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama replaced MCWD board members Daluz, Miguelito Pato and Jodelyn May Seno last Oct. 31 with Melquiades Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan and Nelson Yuvallos. But Daluz, Pato and Seno have refused to step down from their posts.Feliciano is the chairman of the Rama-appointed board.
