MANILA, Philippines — Up to two tropical cyclones are expected to enter the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) in December, the state weather bureau said on Thursday.

Once they enter the country, the tropical cyclones will be named Rosal and Samuel, according to Estareja.
Estareja pointed out that the storms in December have a higher chance of making landfall and may even become super typhoons.
