Pagasa: Rain showers due in many parts of PH due to LPA

Public Weather Forecast Issued at 4:00 AM February 08, 2021

MANILA, Philippines — The trough or extension of a low-pressure area (LPA) will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms to the Bicol, Visayas, Caraga, Northern Mindanao and Davao regions on Monday, according to the state weather bureau.

 The LPA was last spotted 580 kilometers east of Davao City, based on the weather forecast issued by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) at 4 a.m. 

“Bagama’t ang nasabing LPA ay hindi natin inaasahan na magiging isang ganap na bagyo, patuloy itong magdadala ng pag-ulan sa ilang bahagi ng Luzon, gayun na rin sa Kabisayaan, at sa ilang bahagi ng Mindanao,” Pagasa weather specialist Meno Mendoza said. 

(Although this LPA is not expected to become a storm, it will continue to bring rains to  parts of Luzon, as well as in Visayas, and Mindanao.)

 Meanwhile, the northeast monsoon or “amihan” is still affecting the weather in Luzon, mostly in the northern portion of the region.

According to Pagasa’s forecast, the northeast monsoon will bring cloudy skies with light rains in Cagayan Valley and Cordillera Administrative Region.

 The northeast monsoon will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains to the Ilocos region and Central Luzon. 

 Metro Manila and the rest of the country, on the other hand, will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms, according to Pagasa.
