PAGASA continues to monitor LPA outside PAR that may develop into tropical depression

PAGASA continues to monitor two low pressure areas (LPAs) outside the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) as one of them has a "high chance" of developing into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours.

“Another low pressure area (LPA 05b) is being monitored outside the PAR and now has a ‘high’ chance of developing into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours,” PAGASA said in its 10 a.m. outlook.

As of 8 a.m., PAGASA said the LPA was last located 2,595 kilometers east of northeastern Mindanao.

Meanwhile, another LPA outside PAR is "unlikely" to develop as a tropical depression in the next 24 hours, according to PAGASA.

This LPA was last spotted 1,020 kilometers east of northeastern Mindanao. —VAL, GMA News
