Two Low-Pressure Areas Show Low Storm Development Chance
The two low-pressure areas inside and outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility still have a low chance of developing into tropical depressions within the next 24 hours, sources said Wednesday afternoon. The low-pressure areas remain closely monitored but are not expected to intensify soon.
As of 3 p.m., the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) reported that one LPA is located 370 kilometers east of Daet, Camarines Norte, while the other is far outside the PAR, about 2,865 kilometers east of Northern Luzon.
Weather Conditions Linked to Two Low-Pressure Areas
The LPA inside the PAR is causing cloudy skies with scattered to widespread rains and thunderstorms over several regions. These include Cagayan Valley, Calabarzon provinces (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon), Aurora, and Marinduque. Residents in these areas should expect unstable weather conditions but no severe storms.
Southwest Monsoon Brings Rain to Mindanao and Palawan
Meanwhile, the southwest monsoon, locally known as habagat, is bringing cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms to parts of Mindanao and Palawan. The affected areas include the Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, and the Caraga Region. Some areas will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.
Local authorities continue to advise the public to stay alert to weather updates and prepare for possible rain-induced disruptions in these regions. The two low-pressure areas are not anticipated to develop into storms within the next day, but vigilance remains necessary.
