MANILA, Philippines — A cloud cluster being monitored east of Mindanao has developed into a low-pressure area (LPA), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said yesterday.

It has a “medium chance of development into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours,” the state weather bureau said.

Meanwhile, PAGASA weather forecaster Daniel James Villamil said that the shear line will continue to bring rains in many areas in the country, particularly Southern Luzon.

Villamil added that the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is currently affecting portions of the Visayas and Mindanao, particularly Eastern Visayas, Central Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Soccsksargen, Caraga and Davao regions.

“We advised residents in the affected areas to be on alert for possible flooding and landslides amid the expected continuous rains,” he said.

On the other hand, Villamil said that the northeast monsoon will continue to affect Northern Luzon, Metro Manila and the rest of the country.

The gale warning was hoisted in the coasts of Northern Luzon.

According to Villamil, the ITCZ is usually a breeding ground for LPAs.

“We expect at least one typhoon to enter the Philippine area of responsibility before the year ends,” he said.

“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. Patrolling a coastline that spans over 37 million kilometers and watching over our Exclusive Economic Zone is no small feat,” Marcos said. 

The committee hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, October 23, at 10 a.m.
