The state weather bureau PAGASA reported that a low-pressure area off Batanes and southwest monsoon will bring overcast skies and rains over some parts of the country.
On Thursday (July 14, 2022), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. A low pressure area and habagat will continue to affect the country’s weather condition.
PAGASA reported that the low-pressure area has been last spotted at 185 kilometers west-northwest of Itbayat, Batanes. The localized thunderstorms will be affecting Mindanao. The Southwest Monsoon will be affecting the western section of Northern and Central Luzon.
Weather specialist Grace Castañeda reported that the low-pressure area off Batanes has a slim chance of developing into a typhoon within 24 hours. Its impact has also diminished over most parts of Luzon.
“Nanatiling mababa ang tiyansa nito maging bagyo within 24 hours, at nakikita nga natin na palayo na ito sa ating area of responsibility at humina ang epekto nito maging ng southwest monsoon sa malaking bahagi ng Luzon,” Castañeda said.
The southwest monsoon will bring cloudy weather condition with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over the provinces of Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, Pangasinan, Bataan and Zambales.
The Southwest Monsoon/Localized Thunderstorms will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms over Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Quirino, Nueva Vizcaya, Aurora, Abra, Apayao, Kalinga, Mt. Province, Ifugao, and Benguet.
Bicol Region, Oriental Mindoro, Romblon, Marinduque and Northern Samar as well as Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience similar weather condition. Possible flash floods or landslides are also expected during severe thunderstorms.
Meanwhile, the coastal water conditions over the western section of Luzon will be moderate to rough, while the remaining parts of the archipelago will have slight to moderate surrounding sea conditions.
