Heavy Rains and Thunderstorms in Central Luzon Areas
Moderate to heavy rains and thunderstorms are expected to hit four Central Luzon areas on Thursday, local weather authorities said. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) warned that Tarlac, Zambales, Pampanga, and Bataan will experience these conditions within the next two hours.
The forecast highlights moderate to heavy rain showers accompanied by lightning and strong winds. Residents in these Central Luzon areas are urged to stay alert and take necessary precautions against possible hazards such as flash floods and landslides.
Weather Advisory and Precautions
Pagasa issued an advisory early Thursday morning, emphasizing the need for vigilance in the affected provinces. The southwest monsoon, locally called the habagat, continues to influence weather patterns, bringing rain showers across Central Luzon.
Authorities remind communities to monitor local updates and prepare for sudden weather changes. Taking early safety measures can help minimize risks caused by the ongoing heavy rains and thunderstorms.
Improving Conditions Elsewhere
Meanwhile, other regions like Metro Manila, the Bicol Region, Calabarzon, and Mimaropa are experiencing improving weather. These areas have seen clearer skies and reduced rainfall, offering some relief to residents there.
Despite better weather in some parts, the vigilance in the four Central Luzon areas remains crucial due to the expected intense rain and storm activity.
