LPA off Surigao City bringing heavy rain to several regions, provinces
A Low Pressure Area (LPA) and the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) are bringing cloudy skies and scattered rain showers to various parts of the Philippines.
The LPA, located 200 kilometers east-northeast of Surigao City, Surigao del Norte, is causing scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over the Bicol Region, Eastern Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Caraga, Davao Region, Isabela, Aurora, Quezon, Marinduque, and Romblon.
Moderate to heavy rains may lead to flash floods or landslides in these areas.

The southwest monsoon is affecting the western parts of Southern Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao.
Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms are expected in the rest of Mimaropa, the Visayas, and Mindanao.
