The trough or extension of a low pressure area (LPA) off Northern Luzon, and the southwest monsoon or habagat will continue to bring scattered rain showers or thunderstorms over several parts of the country, including in Metro Manila, the state weather agency said early Tuesday morning.
Weather specialist Robert Badrina of the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said the trough of the LPA has been affecting Cagayan Valley, Central Luzon, Ifugao, and Benguet where cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms would prevail.
On the oher hand, the southwest monsoon, locally known as ‘habagat’, would bring similar weather patterns over Metro Manila, CALABARZON (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon), MIMAROPA (Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan), Western Visayas, Camarines Norte, and Camarines Sur.
Bardrina said that habagat would also bring scattered rain and thunderstorms over the Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, Caraga Region and the rest of Visayas
The rest of the country would also have the same atmospheric conditions over the next 24 hours, but due to localized thunderstorms, Badrina said.
Meanwhile, Pagasa said that as of 2 a.m., the LPA being monitored has a "low" potential of developing into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours.
