Pagasa: ‘Paeng’ still here but new LPA may enter PH this weekend

/ 06:33 PM September 26, 2018

Typhoon “Paeng” (international name Trami) is still within the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR), but a low pressure area (LPA) may soon follow, the state weather bureau said Wednesday.

Paeng is expected to leave PAR on Saturday afternoon but the new weather disturbance may enter PAR either on Sunday or Monday, according to Gener Quitlong, of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).

Quitlong said they are keeping an eye on the LPA but based on early forecasts, it might have a similar track with Paeng.
