The low pressure area (LPA) being monitored off the West Philippine Sea may intensify into tropical depression “Goring” within 36 hours.
Around Thursday afternoon, the location of the LPA was estimated at 310 kilometers west-northwest of Sinait, Ilocos Sur.
So far, the brewing cyclone, which will be named “Goring” once it becomes a tropical depression, is not seen to make landfall over any part of the country, Bulquerin said. Residents in these areas, especially those in areas identified to be at risk of flooding and landslides, were advised to take precautionary measures, coordinate with local disaster risk reduction and management offices, and continue monitoring PAGASA updates.
Metro Manila, Southern Luzon, and the eastern section of Central Luzon may expect gradual improvement in weather condition by weekend but the western section of Central Luzon and Northern Luzon will likely continue to experience rains of varying intensities in the next four days, Bulquerin said.
