A low pressure area outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) developed into a tropical depression on October 25, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).
The remaining low pressure area is estimated to be 2,520 km east of Eastern Visayas. The second low has a very low chance of developing into a tropical depression.
The Philippine weather agency detected a new low pressure area just before Typhoon Trami made landfall in the country at midnight on October 24 (local time).
The announcement came with an update on heavy rains and strong winds in some areas of the Philippines due to the impact of the typhoon.
Even if Typhoon Trami leaves PAR on October 25, PAGASA said there is a possibility that it will return to the West Philippine Sea, within the PAR area on October 27 or 28.
