MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said it is monitoring a low pressure area (LPA) and cloud clusters forming outside and inside the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR).

In an early Saturday morning report, Pagasa weather specialist Daniel James Villamil said the LPA located on the northeastern boundary of the PAR may not develop into a typhoon within the next few days and won’t have any direct effect on the country.

The cloud clusters detected inside PAR, meanwhile, were forecast to become an LPA in the coming days – but will also not affect the country, according to Villamil.

As for the rest of the country, Pagasa said slightly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms caused by localized thunderstorms may be anticipated.
