PAGASA Says Northeast Monsoon and Shear Line to Bring Rain Over Parts of the Country
PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The latest weather update reported that no LPA is expected to develop into a typhoon this week.
On Monday (October 23, 2023), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Amihan and the shear line will bring rain over parts of the country.
PAGASA reported that no low-pressure area is expected to develop into a typhoon until the end of the week. However, overcast skies with rain are expected over most parts of the country, according to state weather specialist Obet Badrina.
“Base sa pinakahuling datos, wala pa tayong binabantayan o namamataan na ano mang low pressure area [na] posible maging bagyo for this week. Posible po hanggang sa pagtatapos ng linggong ito maliit pa ‘yung tyansa na magkaroon tayo ng bagyo,” Badrina said.
The shear line will bring cloudy weather conditions with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over Metro Manila, Central Luzon, Calabarzon, Bicol Region, Isabela, Quirino, and Nueva Vizcaya.
Possible flash floods or landslides are expected in the affected areas due to moderate to at times heavy rains.
The northeast monsoon will bring similar weather conditions over the rest of Cagayan Valley.
Amihan will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over the Cordillera Administrative Region and Ilocos Region. The localized thunderstorms will bring similar weather conditions over the remaining parts of the country.
