PAGASA Says 3 Weather Systems to Affect PH Weather Condition
PAGASA LATEST UPDATE – The state weather bureau reported that ITCZ, amihan, and easterlies will bring rains over parts of the country.
On Thursday (February 13, 2025), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Three weather systems will affect the country’s weather conditions.
PAGASA weather specialist Chenel Dominguez reported that overcast skies and rains are expected over several areas in Mindanao due to the intertropical convergence zone.
“Para naman dito sa Palawan at nalalabing bahagi ng Mindanao, asahan naman po natin na makararanas tayo ng maaliwalas na panahon, pero mataas ang tsansa ng mga localized thunderstorms pagdating sa hapon at sa gabi,” Dominguez said.
The ITCZ will bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms over Caraga, Davao Region, Camiguin, Misamis Oriental, and Bukidnon.
The easterlies will bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms in Visayas, Bicol Region, and Romblon.
The shear line will bring similar weather conditions over Batanes and Babuyan Islands in Northern Luzon.
“Tumaas ‘yung axis ng ating shear line, which is ‘yung salubungan ng mainit at malamig na hangin. Sa ngayon, itong shear line po natin ay nakakaapekto dito sa may extreme northern Luzon,” she added.
The easterlies will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms over Metro Manila and the rest of the country.
“Asahan din po natin, magiging mainit at maalinsangan ang ating tanghali hanggang hapon na may tsansa ng mga localized thunderstorms pagdating sa hapon at sa gabi,” Dominguez explained.
The weather agency has warned the public for possible flash floods or landslides in affected areas due to moderate to heavy rains and severe thunderstorms.
PAGASA is monitoring a low-pressure area is being monitored outside the Philippine area of responsibility. It has a slim chance of developing into a tropical cyclone.
Meanwhile, a gale warning was raised over the northern seaboard of Northern Luzon.
