MANILA, Philippines – State weather bureau PAGASA is now monitoring a low pressure area (LPA), which is expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) today, November 29, 2020.

The LPA spotted 1,500 east of Mindanao as of 4:00 am on Sunday could enter PAR this afternoon or evening.

"Mababa po ang chance na maging isang bagyo sa ngayon pero ang itong low pressure area ay nakikitang magdadala ng ulan sa susunod na 2 or 3 araw habang lumalapit sa parte ng Visayas and Southern Luzon," said DOST-PAGASA Weather Specialist Benison Estareja.
