LPA to cause widespread rain showers over Bicol, Eastern Visayas, Quezon

A low pressure area (LPA) located northeast of Surigao del Norte will cause cloudy skies with scattered to widespread rain showers and thunderstorms over the Bicol Region, Eastern Visayas and Quezon on Sunday, PAGASA said in its weather forecast.

Flooding or landslides may result due to moderate to heavy with at times intense rains.

Metro Manila, Mindanao, the rest of Visayas, Mimaropa, the rest of Calabarzon, and Aurora will have cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms also due to the LPA. Moderate to heavy rains may lead to flooding or landslides.

At 3 a.m. on Sunday, the LPA was estimated to be located at 80 km northeast of Surigao City, Surigao del Norte or 125 km east of Maasin City, Southern Leyte.

Meanwhile, the rest of Luzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms. During severe thunderstorms, flash floods or landslides may result.

Coastal waters will be moderate to rough in the seaboards of Northern Luzon, and light to moderate in the rest of the country.

Sunrise will be at 6:25 a.m. while sunset will be at 5:46 p.m. —KG, GMA Integrated News
