The low pressure area moving near the East Sea has begun to cause widespread heavy rain with a high risk of flash floods, landslides and localized flooding

The storm/low pressure information from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said that at 3:00 a.m. on October 27, the center of the low pressure was at about 8.3 degrees north latitude; 121.0 degrees east longitude, about 260km west of Dipolog City, Zamboanga del Norte Province.

The possibility of developing into a tropical depression in the next 24 hours is assessed as "low". PAGASA forecasts the low pressure to move westward and may enter the East Sea on October 28-29.

If it strengthens into a storm while still in the Philippine Forecast Area (PAR), it will be named Tino - the 20th storm of 2025 in the Philippines.

In the next 24 hours, heavy rains are expected to be concentrated in the areas of MIMAROPA, Western Visayas, Negros Island, Central Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula and Bangsamoro Autonomous Region (BARMM).

On the afternoon of October 26, prolonged heavy rains caused by the low pressure caused flash floods in Barangay Tagpangi and the Mangalay Bridge area (Barangay Dansolihon), Cagayan de Oro City.

According to the report of the City's Disaster Management Office, floods originating from high mountains and overflooding low areas have caused many houses to be flooded, and some roads to be temporarily cut off. Rescue forces assessed the damage and cleared the mud that afternoon.

International typhoon and weather forecast models, including Google FNV3, GFS and ECMWF, show signs of a 1-2 new typhoon forming in early November, possibly towards the Philippines and the South China Sea. However, meteorologists stress that this scenario is still volatile and needs to continue to be monitored in the coming days.
