MANILA, Philippines — A low pressure area (LPA) east of the Philippines may have a high chance of developing a tropical depression within 24 hours, the state weather bureau PAGASA said.
As of 8 a.m. on Wednesday, December 3, PAGASA said the LPA was estimated 1,190 kilometers east of southeastern Luzon.
Meanwhile, former severe tropical storm “Verbena,” which is now an LPA, is estimated to be at 475 kilometers west northwest of Pagasa Island, Kalayaan, Palawan.
ITCZ, Amihan to bring rains. Some areas in the Philippines may expect rain due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and the northeast monsoon, locally known as “amihan.”
Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi may expect cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the ITCZ.
The amihan may also bring cloudy skies with rain to Cagayan Valley, Ilocos Norte, Apayao, Kalinga and Aurora.
The rest of Ilocos Region, the rest of Cordillera Administrative Region and the rest of Central Luzon may also experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains due to the amihan.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country may also experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms.
