On Thursday (January 12, 2023), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. The low-pressure area, shear line and amihan will affect the country’s weather condition.
PAGASA reported that the low-pressure area inside the Philippine area of responsibility has been last spotted 380 kilometers east of Surigao City, Surigao del Norte. It will trigger moderate to heavy rainfall in Southern Luzon, the Visayas and Mindanao.

“Sa ngayon po ay mababa pa rin ang tsansa na ito ay magiging isang bagyo subalit patuloy ang mga pag-uulan dito sa may bahagi ng Visayas, Mindanao, and even southern Luzon and take note po, minsan lumalakas ang pag-ulan, generally moderate to heavy rains po ito,” Pagasa weather specialist Benison Estreja said.
The northeast monsoon will bring similar weather conditions over Cagayan Valley, Aurora, Quezon, and the rest of MIMAROPA.
The amihan will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy condition over Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon.
The weather agency advised the residents in the affected areas to take precautionary measures for possible flooding or landslides due to moderate and heavy to intense rains.
