MANILA, Philippines — Cloud clusters outside the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) east of Visayas and Mindanao may develop into a low-pressure area (LPA) within the next 24 to 48 hours, according to the Philippine Atmosphericscatter365, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration.
PAGASA weather specialist Grace Castañeda said in a briefing yesterday that rains are expected in the eastern part of Visayas and Mindanao amid the effect of the shear line and the possible LPA.
“We are continuously monitoring these cloud clusters amid the possibility that these cloud clusters may have circulation and may develop into an LPA within the next 24 to 48 hours,” Castañeda said.
She advised the public to continue to get updates from the state weather bureau to ensure the preparedness of everyone in case the cloud clusters develop into an LPA.
“As we look ahead, we must recognize that the challenges you face are growing more complex. Climate change, rising sea levels, and geopolitical tensions mean that the stakes have never been higher.
