PAGASA declares end of La Niña, neutral conditions return

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) has officially declared the end of La Niña, indicating a transition to neutral climate conditions.

PAGASA's monitoring shows that sea surface temperatures in the central and equatorial Pacific have normalized, signifying the absence of both La Niña and El Niño.

The conclusion of La Niña is expected to lead to a reduction in rainfall above normal levels in several regions, including Luzon, Bicol, Eastern Visayas, and northeastern Mindanao.

PAGASA has downgraded its ENSO Alert and Warning System to "inactive," meaning neither La Niña nor El Niño is anticipated to develop in the coming three months.

Neutral climate conditions are projected to continue throughout the September-October-November 2025 season.

Despite the end of La Niña, PAGASA advises the public to remain cautious of the current warm and dry season and take measures to avoid heat-related illnesses.
