LPA may develop into tropical depression
MANILA, Philippines — The southwest monsoon and a low-pressure area off Aurora will continue to bring rains over most of Luzon, including Metro Manila, and Western Visayas today.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), however, said that there is a small chance that the low-presure area would develop into a tropical depression today or tomorrow.
But it will still continue to affect weather conditions and bring scattered, at times heavy rains and thunderstorms in Metro Manila and the provinces in Luzon and Western Visayas.
At 3 p.m. yesterday, the low-pressure area was spotted 100 kilometers east of Casiguran, Aurora.
PAGASA warned that prolonged rainfall, especially in high risk areas, might result in flooding or rain-induced landslides.
PAGASA senior weather specialist Chris Perez said there would be gradual improvement in the weather in Bicol and Palawan today.
