The municipal government of Magsingal enacted a temporary liquor ban and curfew as the southwest monsoon brings heavy rains and flooding to the region.

Tropical Storm Maymay made landfall in Magsingal, Ilocos Sur, and subsequently weakened into a tropical depression as it crossed Northern Luzon. The storm brought strong winds that toppled trees and led to fewer areas remaining under Signal No. 1.

Various services and activities in the Philippines, including court work, ferry trips, and number coding, were suspended on August 6 due to bad weather. Additionally, a curfew and liquor ban were imposed in Magsingal, Ilocos Sur, because of Tropical Depression Maymay.
