(Update) 2 LPAs continue to dump rains in PHL until Friday –PAGASA

Posted on September 4, 2014

MANILA, Sept. 4 (PNA) — The two low-pressure areas (LPAs) inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) will continue to dump light to moderate rains in the whole country in the next 24 hours, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Thursday.

In an interview, PAGASA weather forecaster Meno Mendoza said that as of 4 p.m., one of the LPAs was estimated based on all available data at the vicinity of Dagupan City (16.0ºN, 120.2ºE), while the other LPA was located at 440 kilometers east of Virac, Catanduanes (14.4ºN, 128.8ºE).

Mendoza said the LPA located in Dagupan has a slim chance to intensify into a tropical depression as it interacts in landmass.

He added that the other weather disturbance located off Catanduanes has a high chance to intensify into tropical depression since it is still in the sea.

Once this LPA intensifies into a tropical depression inside the country, it will be locally named “Karding.”

Due to the two LPAs, the whole country will experience cloudy skies with light to moderate rainshowers and thunderstorms until Friday, Mendoza told the Philippines News Agency.

In its 5 p.m. advisory, PAGASA said light to moderate winds blowing from the northeast to northwest will prevail over Luzon and coming from the west to southwest over the Visayas and Mindanao.

The coastal waters throughout the archipelago will be slight to moderate.

The agency said no gale warning has been issued and sea travel will be safe for fisherfolk and small seacraft. (PNA)
