A shallow low pressure spotted east of Quezon province has only a slim chance of developing into a tropical cyclone but it may continue to bring rains and thunderstorms over Metro Manila and other parts of the country, the state weather bureau said Wednesday.
A new weather disturbance was spotted Monday afternoon near Batanes just as two low pressure areas (LPAs) detected Sunday night and early Monday morning virtually dissipated, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.
A new low pressure area was spotted near Basco, Batanes as Typhoon “Karen” left the country’s area of responsibility, the weather bureau said Monday.
Rain showers and thunderstorms are to be expected in the Visayas and Mindanao with an intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) in effect over the regions, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) anticipates the habagat (southwest monsoon) to continue to bring scattered rain showers and thunderstorms, as well as gusty winds, to Luzon, including Metro Manila, and the Visayas until Thursday.
Protesters out in the streets for President Benigno Aquino’s State of the Nation Address (Sona) Monday are likely to get drenched.
An active low pressure area was forecast to bring widespread rain over Northern Luzon, and if it picks up, it could develop into a depression Friday, forecasters said Thursday.
After Wednesday’s afternoon rainshowers and thunderstorms in some parts of Luzon and Visayas, the weather is expected to improve in Metro Manila by Thursday and the whole archipelago by Friday.
Tropical Storm “Dindo” (international name: Doksuri) was moving out of the country and expected to head towards southern China, the state weather bureau said Friday.
The rains swelled rivers and triggered landslides in Ilocos Norte, while the governor of Isabela took a step further in preventing storm-related deaths by imposing a liquor ban after noting that drowning cases in past calamities were drunk.
Tropical Storm “Dindo” (International name “Doksuri”) will not make a landfall but will directly hit Babuyan Islands and Batanes Islands at the northern tip of Luzon, the state weather bureau said Thursday.
Public storm signal No. 1 has been raised over the provinces of Cagayan and Isabela as Tropical Storm “Dindo” heads towards extreme northern Luzon.
Is it going to rain today? The weather bureau will deliver the answer to this age-old question in yellow, green or red.
