Southwest Monsoon to bring rains over PH

The Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) will continue to affect the country on Monday and bring rains, PAGASA said in its weather forecast. Zambales, Bataan, and Occidental Mindoro will experience monsoon rains. Moderate to heavy with at times intense rains may possibly result in floods or landslides. Metro Manila, Ilocos Region, Benguet, Tarlac, Pampanga, Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Oriental Mindoro will have occasional rains. Floods or landslides are possible due to moderate to heavy rains. In its heavy rainfall outlook, PAGASA said 50 to 100 mm of rainfall may be expected in Metro Manila, Pangasinan, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, and Occidental Mindoro today. Visayas, the rest of Luzon, Zamboanga Peninsula, and Northern Mindanao may expect cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms. Flash floods or landslides may possibly result due to moderate to at times heavy rains. The rest of Mindanao on the other hand will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms. During severe thunderstorms, flash floods or landslides may possibly result. Coastal waters will be moderate to rough in Luzon, and slight to moderate in Visayas and Mindanao. Sunrise was at 5:37 a.m. while sunset will be at 6:28 p.m. PAGASA also said it started monitoring on Sunday night a low pressure area (LPA). At 3 a.m., the LPA was estimated to be located at 1,140 km east of Southeastern Luzon. "Maliit pa ang tsansa nitong maging bagyo in the next 24 tayong inaasahang direktang epekto sa ngayon," PAGASA weather specialist Daniel James Villamil said in the bureau's public weather forecast. (It has a small chance of developing into a tropical depression in the next 24 hours... No direct effect [on the country] is expected as of now.) Meanwhile, Severe Tropical Storm Wipha (formerly named Crising when it was inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility) was at 3 a.m. located 1,160 km west of Extreme Northern Luzon. Wipha has maximum sustained winds of 95 km/h near the center and gustiness of up to 130 km/h. The severe tropical storm is moving westward at 20 km/h. —KG, GMA Integrated News
