MANILA, Philippines — A cloud cluster sighted in the southeastern portion of the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) may develop into a weather disturbance, the state weather bureau said on Wednesday.
According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), weather disturbances may enter the PAR early next week.

“Hindi natin tinatanggal ang posibilidad na may mamuong weather disturbance or low pressure area sa nabanggit na lugar later in the week at hindi rin natin tinatanggal ‘yong tiyansa ng weather disturbance na posibleng mamuo at pumasok sa Philippine area of responsibility early next week,” Pagasa weather specialist Daniel Villamil said in the bureau’s weather update.
(We are not removing the possibility that a weather disturbance may develop in the area mentioned later in the week, and we are also not removing the chance of the weather disturbance entering the Philippine area of responsibility early next week.)
Meanwhile, Villamil said that the country would experience hot and humid weather throughout the day brought by easterly winds, but some areas, including Metro Manila, may experience thunderstorms from afternoon to evening.
“Makakaranas pa rin tayo ng mga tsansa ng pulo-pulong pag-ulan, pagkidlat, at pagkulog na dulot ng thunderstorms pagsapit ng hapon hanggang sa gabi, dito sa Metro Manila at sa malaking bahagi pa ng ating bansa,” Villamil added.
(We will still be experiencing chances of isolated rains and thunderstorms from afternoon to evening, including Metro Manila and a large part of our country.)
