The Low Pressure Area (LPA) east of Visayas could become a tropical depression, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) on Monday, April 10, said. ManilaBulletin READ:
Based on the Weather Advisory No. 1 issued at 11 a.m., PAGASA said that the “weather disturbance may develop into a tropical depression as it moves generally westward towards Southern Luzon-Visayas area over the Philippine Sea.”
PAGASA also noted that in the next 24 hours, the effect of the LPA will “bring light to moderate with at times heavy rains” over Eastern Visayas and Caraga. “Under these conditions, flooding and rain-induced landslides are likely, especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards as identified in hazard maps and in areas with significant antecedent rainfall,” PAGASA said.
Related to this, PAGASA advised public and disaster risk reduction and management offices concerned to “take all necessary measures to protect life and property.” PAGASA noted that its regional services divisions “may also issue local heavy rainfall warnings, rainfall or thunderstorm advisories, and other severe weather information specific to their areas of responsibility as appropriate.”
