Pagasa is currently monitoring a tropical depression located at the east of Central Luzon, which is moving slowly toward west-northwest.
It said the weather disturbance could enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility Thursday morning or afternoon.
It could intensify into a tropical storm within 24 hours, the weather bureau said.
