A low pressure area (LPA) and the shear line will continue to bring rains across most of the country in the next 24 hours, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Tuesday afternoon, April 5.
PAGASA said the LPA was estimated at 260 kilometers east-northeast of Davao City as of 3 p.m., and remains less likely to develop into a tropical depression in the next 24 hours.
However, as it is expected to move west-northwestward, the weather disturbance may still bring significant rains over some parts of the country in the next couple of hours.
The LPA, along with the shear line—a region where warm and cold winds converge—will bring cloudy skies with scattered to widespread rain showers and thunderstorms over Metro Manila, Central Luzon, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Bicol, Visayas, and Mindanao.
PAGASA advised the public to remain vigilant against possible flash floods or landslides because of the occurrence of moderate to heavy rains.
Meanwhile, the northeasterly surface wind flow will bring cloudy skies with rains over Cagayan Valley, while the rest of Luzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains.
