Earlier| DOST PAGASA and LGU-Panabo sign a Memorandum of Agreement to establish an X-Band Rain Radar in Brgy. Datu Abdul.
The rain radar will increase the capability of PAGASA in terms of rainfall monitoring, rain forecasting, flood early warning system and flash flood monitoring. This will oversee the 2 major river basins in Davao and Tagum.
Better than a rain gauge, the radar will be able to detect weather conditions within 40 km radius that covers Panabo and surrounding areas like Davao, Tagum, Sto. Tomas and other cities and municipalities.
