MANILA, Philippines — Tropical Depression Julian remained almost stationary over the Philippine Sea east of Batanes and may intensify into a tropical storm either Friday night or Saturday morning, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.

It said «Julian» may become a typhoon on Sunday.

«Julian» was spotted some 525 kilometers east of Itbayat, Batanes, packing maximum sustained winds of 55 kilometers per hour near the center, and gustiness of up to 70 kph, it said.
