PAGASA forecasts rain in Metro Manila, Luzon, Visayas due to LPA and SW monsoon

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) forecasts rain in Metro Manila and several provinces in Luzon and the Visayas on Thursday.

A low pressure area (LPA) east of Infanta is expected to have a medium potential for developing into a tropical depression, causing cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms in affected areas.

Metro Manila, Bicol Region, CALABARZON, Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, Northern Samar, Eastern Samar, Samar, and Biliran are particularly at risk due to the LPA's trough.

Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula, Basilan, Tawi-Tawi, Occidental Mindoro, and Palawan will also experience cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms influenced by the Southwest Monsoon.

The rest of the country is expected to have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms.
