The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), however, is keeping tabs on a second low pressure area close behind the first one.
Weather forecaster Alvin Pura said the new low pressure area might gain its strength from the one that has dissipated, and might enter the country either on Sunday or Monday.
Since the first low pressure area, which was last spotted on Wednesday morning over 1,000 kilometers east of Visayas, has dissipated, Pura said no weather disturbance would enter the country by Friday or Saturday.
He said the second low pressure area was still too far away to say for sure whether it would maintain its strength and track in the direction of the Philippines.
Should the low pressure area enter the Philippine area of responsibility and develop into a tropical cyclone, it will be named Inday, according to Pagasa.
Despite typhoon Henry’s exit on Wednesday morning, the southwest monsoon will continue to affect Luzon especially in Zambales, Bataan and Pampanga, which will experience monsoon rains, according to Pagasa.
Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon will experience occasional rains while the rest of the country will have isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.
