The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Tuesday, Jan. 30, that while the low pressure area (LPA) outside the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) has a low chance of entering PAR, it may bring "significant rains" over the next few days.
In PAGASA's 4 a.m. live weather forecast, weather specialist Grace Castañeda said rain showers will persist across a significant area of Mindanao, especially in the eastern part, due to the extension or trough of the LPA.
"Mag-iingat sa mga kababayan diyan sa mga banta ng pagbaha at pagguho ng lupa (Be wary of threats from flash floods or landslides)," Castañeda said.
PAGASA said Caraga, Davao Region, Camiguin, Misamis Oriental, Bukidnon, and Southern Leyte will have cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms.
Meanwhile, the rest of Mindanao will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms.
PAGASA warned the public of flash floods or landslides that may occur during moderate to heavy rains.
Meanwhile, the northeast monsoon, locally known as "amihan," may bring cloudy skies with light rains to Cagayan Valley, Aurora, Quezon, Bicol Region, and the rest of Eastern Visayas.
The rest of Luzon and Visayas will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains due to the amihan.
