PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported that two low-pressure areas will trigger rainfall over some parts of the country.
On Friday (July 19, 2024), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Two low-pressure areas will affect the country’s weather conditions.
PAGASA weather specialist Aldczar Aurelio reported that the Low Pressure Area will bring cloudy skies with scattered to widespread rains and thunderstorms over Northern Palawan and Occidental Mindoro.
“Almost the entire country will have cloudy skies and rains,” said Aurelio.
The LPA was last spotted 135 kilometers southwest of Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro. Another LPA was estimated based on all available data at 880 kilometers east of Eastern Visayas.
The trough of a low-pressure area will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over Metro Manila, Central Luzon, CALABARZON, Bicol Region, Western Visayas, and the rest of MIMAROPA.
The southwest monsoon will bring similar weather conditions over the rest of Visayas and Mindanao.
The localized thunderstorms will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms over the rest of Luzon.
The rest of the country will experience a fair weather condition with partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers and thunderstorms.
The weather agency advised the residents in the affected areas to take precautionary measures for possible flash floods or landslides due to moderate to at times heavy rains and severe thunderstorms.
Meanwhile, the coastal water conditions over the western section of Southern Luzon will be moderate to rough. The remaining parts of the country will have slight to moderate surrounding sea conditions.
PAGASA did not raise a gale warning over any of the country’s seaboard.
