Manila: Parts of Luzon will continue to experience rains caused by a low pressure area (LPA) and the easterlies, the weather bureau said Thursday. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) reported that the LPA, located over the coastal waters of Nasugbu, Batangas as of 3 a.m., is still unlikely to develop into a tropical cyclone within 24 hours.

According to Philippines News Agency, the LPA will cause scattered rains and thunderstorms across Metro Manila, Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, Central Luzon, and Calabarzon. Cagayan Valley will also experience scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the easterlies. Moderate to heavy rains in those areas could result in flash floods or landslides.

The rest of the country will experience isolated rain showers caused by localized thunderstorms. Severe thunderstorms could also result in flash floods or landslides. PAGASA, meanwhile, noted that light to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas still prevail throughout the archipelago.
