LPA spotted off Surigao del Sur

MANILA, Philippines — It will be rainy over parts of the Visayas and Mindanao on All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day due to an approaching low-pressure area. 

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the low-pressure area was spotted 625 kilometers east of Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur as of 3 a.m. yesterday.

PAGASA weather forecaster Samuel Duran said the weather system has a slim chance of developing into a tropical cyclone. 

Duran said Metro Manila would experience good weather until Thursday, apart from isolated thunderstorms. 

He said rains would be experienced over the Visayas tomorrow until Thursday as the low-pressure area crosses the region.

Mindanao will also experience rains until tomorrow due to the intertropical convergence zone and the low-pressure area. 

PAGASA warned fishermen against venturing into the rough seas off Northern Luzon and Aurora.

In Northern Luzon, several domestic flights to Cagayan, Isabela and Legazpi were cancelled yesterday due to inclement weather.
