Based on the observation of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), this LPA so far has a small chance of developing into a typhoon.
“Sa ngayon ho, base sa ating latest na mga datos, maliit pa ang tiyansa na ito ay maging bagyo pero inaasahan natin na ito ay kumilos sa bahagi ng Visayas at Bicol Region itong LPA na ito,” Badrina said in an early morning public weather forecast.
(Right now, based on our latest data, there is little chance that this will become a typhoon, but we expect that this LPA will move in the Visayas and Bicol Region.)
