Pagasa sees no storm threat until yearend; LPA-induced rains expected

MANILA, Philippines — The low-pressure area (LPA) east of the country is no longer expected to develop into a tropical cyclone but will trigger rains in parts of the country, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) reported on Thursday.

The LPA was last spotted some 100 kilometers southeast of Guiuan, Eastern Samar.

“Base po sa ating analysis, hindi na po ito inaasahan maging bagyo. So wala na tayo inaasahang bagyo pa hanggang sa matapos ang 2022. Gayunpaman itong low pressure area na nakikita natin ngayong araw, posibleng tawirin ang pagitan ng Visayas at Mindanao,” said Pagasa weather specialist Benison Estareja.

(Based on our analysis, the LPA is no longer expected to become a cyclone. So we are not expecting any cyclones until yearend. The LPA may cross the Visayas and Mindanao).

According to Pagasa’s latest weather bulletin, the Mimaropa (Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, Palawan), Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, Quezon), Bicol, Eastern and Western Visayas regions will have overcast skies and scattered rains and thunderstorms.

The northeast monsoon or “amihan” will also bring rains to Luzon, including Metro Manila.

  • Eastern Coast Of Quezon (General Nakar, Mauban, Gumaca, Plaridel, Lopez, Calauag, Quezon, Alabat, And Perez) Including the northern and eastern coasts of Polillo Islands (the northern coast of Panukulan, Burdeos, the eastern coast of Polillo, Patnanungan, and Jomalig)
