LPA inside PAR 'unlikely' to become tropical depression — PAGASA

The low pressure area (LPA) observed inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility is “unlikely” to develop into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours, PAGASA said Monday afternoon.

As of 3 p.m., the LPA was located over the coastal waters of Concepcion, Iloilo.

It will affect the weather conditions of Visayas, Bicol Region, Romblon, Quezon, and Marinduque, according to the state weather bureau's 4 p.m. daily weather forecast.

These moderate to at times heavy rains may trigger flash floods and landslides.

The Ilocos Region and Cordillera Administrative Region will see partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms.

The same weather conditions will affect Metro Manila and the rest of the country due to the easterlies.

These severe thunderstorms may cause flash floods and landslides.

State meteorologists also said winds will be light to moderate, while coastal waters will be slight to moderate throughout the country.

Sunrise in Metro Manila will be at 5:27 a.m. on Tuesday. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/RF, GMA Integrated News
