Some LGUs Declared Class Suspensions for Monday (September 16, 2024) Due to Inclement Weather

WALANG PASOK – Several local government units have declared class suspensions in various areas due to bad weather condition.

As of 3 a.m. on Monday (September 16, 2024), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration reported that a Low Pressure Area (LPA) located east of Cagayan is contributing to the inclement weather.

The LPA was estimated to be 375 kilometers east-northeast of Casiguran, Aurora, and 400 kilometers east of Tuguegarao City, Cagayan.

Due to continuous rains caused by the Southwest Monsoon, several local government units (LGUs) have suspended classes. The precautionary measure aims to prioritize the safety of students and school personnel as heavy rainfall is expected in various regions across Luzon and the Visayas.
