New low pressure forming near East Sea

Thanh Hà |

A new low pressure system near the South China Sea may form from some cloud clusters east of Mindanao, Philippines.

The latest storm and low pressure forecast on February 5 by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said that weather experts are monitoring some cloud clusters in eastern Mindanao that are likely to strengthen into a low pressure area.

However, PAGASA weather expert Benison Estareja said that this low pressure near the East Sea is unlikely to strengthen into a tropical depression.

Strong northeast monsoon is affecting the Cagayan Valley, Cordillera, Aurora, Quezon and Camarines Norte regions. Weather in these areas is cloudy with some rain, Estareja noted.

Another weather system, an easterly wind blowing from the east and moving across the Pacific Ocean carrying warm and moist air, will develop in Caraga, Davao and Soccsksargen regions (South Cotabato, Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani and General Santos). Scattered rains and thunderstorms are expected in these areas.

Northeasterly winds also affected Metro Manila and other parts of Luzon, bringing cloudy skies with scattered light rains.

Due to the influence of easterly winds, PAGASA noted that other parts of the Philippines will experience scattered showers or thunderstorms within the next 24 hours.

Previously, on February 4, PAGASA predicted that the possibility of a tropical storm forming this week was very low. PAGASA storm forecaster Obet Badrina said: "The possibility of a tropical storm forming today and in the next few days this week remains low. Similar to March, the possibility of a storm forming in February is usually low."

The Philippine weather agency's February typhoon forecast also confirmed that there is a possibility of only one typhoon or no typhoon in February. PAGASA expert Junie Ruiz noted that climate models show a low probability of forming a low pressure area in February.
