MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) releases the latest weather update.
Forecast Weather Conditions
There is currently no active Tropical Cyclone within the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR). However, the Low-Pressure Area (LPA) is closely approaching, and PAGASA is also monitoring its likelihood of transforming into a Tropical Cyclone.
Bicol Region, Eastern Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Caraga, Davao Region, Quezon, Marinduque, and Romblon will have “cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms” due to the Shear Line and trough of LPA. This weather condition will cause “possible flash floods or landslides due to moderate to, at times, heavy rains.”
The Northeast Monsoon continues to affect several parts of Luzon and will bring various effects depending on the areas. Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, and Aurora will experience “cloudy skies with rains,” bringing “possible flash floods or landslides due to moderate to, at times, heavy rains.” On the other hand, Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon will have “partly cloudy to at times cloudy skies with light rains,” bringing “no significant impact” on the land areas.
The rest of the country will have “partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms” due to the localized thunderstorms. Residents from these areas should also prepare for “possible flash floods or landslides during severe thunderstorms.”
Wind and Coastal Water Conditions
As in yesterday’s report, Northern Luzon will experience moderate to strong winds moving from the northeast to the east. The condition of its coastal water will be moderate to rough (2.5 to 4.0 meters).
The rest of Luzon, Visayas, and the eastern section of Mindanao can also expect moderate to strong winds, moving to the northeast, with moderate to rough coastal water conditions (1.2 to 4.0 meters).
The rest of Mindanao will have light to moderate wind conditions, and their direction will be from the northeast. These areas can expect slight to moderate coastal water conditions (0.6 to 2.1 meters).
