Tropical depression outside PAR may intensify into typhoon
A tropical depression outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) has slightly intensified and may develop into a typhoon by the time it enters PAR, possibly on Thursday.
PAGASA forecasts that while the storm will not directly affect weather conditions in the Philippines, it may enhance the Southwest Monsoon, bringing monsoon rains to western sections of Southern Luzon and Visayas starting Wednesday or Thursday.
The tropical cyclone is expected to track northeastward slowly before turning northwestward on Thursday, accelerating towards the northeastern portion of PAR thereafter.
