Two Low Pressure Areas (LPAs) Spotted in the Philippines

Two Low Pressure Areas (LPAs) are currently being monitored within the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR). One LPA is located 90 kilometers east northeast of Daet, Camarines Norte, while another is spotted 900 kilometers east of Eastern Visayas.

The LPA off Daet is expected to bring cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms over the Bicol Region, Eastern Visayas, and Quezon. Pagasa has warned of possible flash floods and landslides due to moderate to heavy rains in these areas.

Meanwhile, the LPA 900 kilometers east of Eastern Visayas is not providing any new information as of now.

The southwest monsoon, or "habagat," is affecting Metro Manila, Mimaropa, Calabarzon, the rest of Visayas, the Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, and Caraga. The rest of Luzon and Mindanao may experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.

The governor of Camarines Norte is Edgardo G. Tallado. The public is advised to remain alert and monitor further weather updates. However, both weather systems are unlikely to develop into tropical depressions within the next 24 hours.

Pagasa urges everyone to take precautions against possible flash floods and landslides in the affected areas. It is important to stay updated with the latest weather forecasts and advisories to ensure safety and preparedness.
