PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported that a low-pressure area exits PAR, amihan and easterlies will bring rains over parts of the country.
On Thursday (December 21, 2023), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. The amihan and easterlies will affect the country’s weather conditions.
PAGASA reported that a low-pressure area, formerly known as Tropical Cyclone Kabayan left the Philippine Area of Responsibility. The LPA was last spotted 495 kilometers west-northwest of Puerto Princesa City, Palawan.
Amihan will be affecting parts of Northern and Central Luzon. The easterlies will prevail over the eastern sections of Southern Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
The trough of the low-pressure area and the easterlies will bring cloudy weather conditions with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over Palawan and Bicol Region.
The northeast monsoon will bring similar weather conditions over Cagayan Valley and Cordillera Administrative Region.
Amihan will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over the rest of Luzon. The easterlies and localized thunderstorms will bring similar weather conditions over the remaining parts of the country.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country may have clearer weather with chances of intermittent rain showers with thunder and lightning in the afternoon or evening, according to Weather Specialist Daniel James Villamil.
“We expect clearer and warmer weather, though there’s still a chance of localized thunderstorms, which are intermittent rain showers with thunder and lightning, usually in the afternoon until evening,” Villamil said.
