MANILA, Philippines —The low pressure area (LPA), which was forecast to develop into a tropical depression, is now unlikely to be so within the next 24 hours, the state-run weather agency Pagasa said on Monday.
However, the combined effects of the LPA, which was estimated at 365 kilometers east of Maasin City, Southern Leyte, and the southwest monsoon (habagat) would bring rain to some parts of the archipelago, Pagasa weather specialist Daniel James Villamil said., This news data comes from:http://jyxingfa.com

In particular, Visayas, Bicol Region, Northern Mindanao, Caraga, and Quezon would be experiencing cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the LPA, the Pagasa forecaster said.
“Flash floods or landslides due to moderate to occasionally heavy rain are possible in these areas,” he warned.

Meanwhile, habagat would prevail over Zamboanga Peninsula, Occidental Mindoro, and Palawan where similar weather patterns would be likely, according to Pagasa.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country would have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms, it added.
