GMA Network6 days ago
The low pressure area (LPA) inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) still has a medium chance of developing into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours, state weather bureau PAGASA said on Tuesday.
In an update around 7:30 a.m., PAGASA said that as of 2 a.m., the LPA was still being monitored near the eastern side of the country.
'As of 2:00 AM today, 01 July 2025, the Low Pressure area (LPA 6h) still being monitored inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) and has a "MEDIUM" potential to develop into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours,' PAGASA said.
'All are advised to monitor updates from DOST-PAGASA,' it added.
The LPA at 3 a.m. was located 650 kilometers east of Infanta, Quezon, PAGASA said in an earlier report.
The trough of the LPA and the Southwest Monsoon or Habagat will bring cloudy skies with scattered rains over parts of the country on Tuesday, according to PAGASA.
Due to the trough of the LPA, cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms are expected over Metro Manila, Visayas, MIMAROPA, Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, Caraga, and the rest of Central Luzon and CALABARZON.
Flash floods or landslides are possible during moderate to at times heavy rains.
Two or three cyclones may be formed inside or enter PAR this month of July 2025, PAGASA said, according to a report on Unang Balita on Tuesday. —Joviland Rita/KG, GMA Integrated News

Habagat, recent rains bring floods, affect fishers and farmers across PH

Several areas across the Philippines were impacted by the continuous rains over the weekend due to the southwest monsoon or Habagat and Tropical Cyclone Danas, bringing down prices of agricultural goods in northern Luzon, and causing floods in Mindanao. Farmers in Benguet have been forced to harvest their goods earlier due to the rains, with market prices down as sellers are offering goods such as cabbage at giveaway prices instead of throwing them out. 'Kahapon talaga 'yung medyo may kalakihan. Dose ang bigay namin. Kapag tag-ulan kasi, medyo mabilis na ano 'yung mga gulay, na ma-harvest kasi masisira,' Gloria Calpito, a seller at the La Trinidad Trading Post, said in a report by Nico Waje on GMA's '24 Oras Weekend' on Sunday. (Yesterday was really big. We sold at P12. During the rainy season, vegetables are harvested immediately because they go bad.) Fisherfolk in Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte are also feeling the effects of the bad weather conditions, as they have been forced to skip fishing activities and remain on the ground for the past few days due to the waves. According to Ilocos Norte Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO) representative Marcell Tabije, authorities are now coordinating to ensure that fisherfolk stay on land for the meantime. 'Pinaigting natin 'yung pagbabantay at pag-info dissemination sa mga fisherfolk natin na huwag munang pumalaot habang malakas 'yung alon,' he said in a separate report by Darlene Cay. (We have intensified our surveillance and our info dissemination to the fisherfolk not to go at sea while the waves are strong.) Streets in Mindanao, particularly in the Sarangani Province, were also flooded by the continuous rains, as irrigation canals spilled over, and floodwaters entered residences in Barangay Pangyan in Glan, and a chapel in Barangay Cross. A river connected to the sea in Jose Abad Santos in Davao Occidental was also reported to have spilled over, forcing fishers and residents of the area to work hand in hand to bring boats back to the shore on Sunday morning. The state weather bureau PAGASA expects tropical cyclone Danas, formerly named Bising, and the Habagat to continue to bring rains across the country. — Jon Viktor D. Cabuenas/BM, GMA Integrated News

Cyclone Danas, Habagat to bring more rain across PH

Tropical cyclone Danas, formerly named Bising, and the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) will continue to bring rain across the country, PAGASA said Sunday afternoon. In its 4 p.m. daily weather forecast, the state weather bureau said rains with gusty winds will persist over Batanes due to Danas. These moderate to heavy rains may cause flooding or flash floods. The strong winds also pose a minimal to minor threat to lives and properties. Meanwhile, the trough of Danas will affect the weather conditions over the Babuyan Islands. At 3 p.m., Damas was located 335 kilometers west northwest of Itbayat, Batanes, packing a maximum sustained winds of 130 kilometers per hour and gustiness of up to 160 km/h, and moving northeastward at 15 km/h. PAGASA earlier said Danas is expected to re-enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility by Sunday evening or early Monday morning. Meanwhile, occasional rains over the Ilocos Region, Zambales, and Bataan are expected due to the Habagat. Cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms will be observed over Metro Manila, Cordillera Administrative Region, CALABARZON, MIMAROPA, Western Visayas, Negros Island Region, Zamboanga Peninsula, BARMM, SOCCSKSARGEN, and the rest of Cagayan Valley and Central Luzon due to the Habagat. These moderate to at times heavy rains may trigger flooding or flash floods. The rest of the country will also see partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the Habagat. Residents of affected areas were warned of possible flooding or flash floods due to severe thunderstorms. State meteorologists also said the extreme Northern Luzon will experience strong wind conditions and rough coastal water conditions. Winds will be moderate to strong, while coastal waters will be moderate to rough in the western section of Central Luzon and the rest of Northern Luzon. The rest of the country will see light to moderate wind conditions and slight to moderate coastal water conditions. Sunrise in Metro Manila will be at 5:32 a.m. on Monday. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/RF, GMA Integrated News

Cyclone formerly Bising now a typhoon, may re-enter PAR by Sunday night

Tropical cyclone Danas, formerly named Bising, developed into a typhoon on Sunday and may re-enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) in the evening, according to PAGASA. According to its 11 a.m. tropical cyclone advisory, the state weather bureau said Danas will continue to move northeastward over the next 36 hours. 'It may re-enter the northwestern boundary of PAR tonight or early tomorrow morning (7 July), and is expected to exit immediately thereafter,' PAGASA said. Danas' center was estimated at 10 a.m. to be located at 385 kilometers west northwest of Itbayat, Batanes. The typhoon has maximum sustained winds of 120 kilometers per hour near the center and gustiness of up to 150 km/h, and heading north northeastward at 10 km/h. From its center, strong to typhoon-force winds are extending outwards up to 330 km. 'DANAS is forecast to steadily intensify over the next 24 hours,' the state weather bureau said. 'A weakening trend is expected over the East China Sea due to unfavorable conditions. It may weaken into a remnant low by Thursday (10 July) as it interacts with the landmass of China,' it added. Gale warning Meanwhile, a gale warning was hoisted on Sunday morning over the northern seaboard of Northern Luzon. Up to very rough seas with waves reaching as much as 4.5 meters tall are expected in the seaboard of Batanes and the western seaboard of Babuyan Islands. 'Sea travel is risky for all types of tonnage of vessels. All mariners must remain in port or, if underway, seek shelter or safe harbor or soon as possible until winds and wave subside,' PAGASA said. Up to rough seas with waves reaching 3.5 meters tall are expected in the western seaboard of Ilocos Norte. 'Mariners of small seacrafts, including all types of motorbancas, are advised not to venture out to sea under these conditions, especially if inexperienced or operating ill-equipped vessels,' the state weather bureau said. Up to moderate seas with waves reaching 2.5 meters tall are expected in the northwestern seaboard of Ilocos Sur and the remaining seaboards of Ilocos Norte, and up to 2.0 meters in the western seaboards of La Union, Pangasinan, and Zambales, and the remaining seaboard of Ilocos Sur. 'Mariners of motorbancas and similarly-sized vessels are advised to take precautionary measures while venturing out to sea and, if possible, avoid navigation under these conditions,' PAGASA said. Families affected At least 3,773 families have been affected so far by Bising (international name: Danas), the Office of the Civil Defense (OCD) said Sunday. In an interview on Super Radyo dzBB, OCD officer-in-charge Bernardo Rafaelito Alejandro IV said the affected families are equivalent to 13,006 individuals from the Ilocos Region (Region I), Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR), and Cagayan Valley (Region II). However, Alejandro noted that the number may increase since the latest data is an initial report from the OCD's field offices. He added that there have been no reported casualties so far. Flooding has been reported in Regions I and II, and CAR, but it is currently subsiding. There were also five reported impassable road sections, but Alejandro said clearing operations are ongoing. He added that Bising also caused partial damage to houses. —KG, GMA Integrated News
