PAGASA said the southwest monsoon continues to affect the country, bringing rains over parts of Luzon.
The state weather bureau is also monitoring two low pressure areas (LPAs) outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR). As of 2 p.m., PAGASA said one of the LPAs was unlikely to develop into a tropical depression within the next 24 hours, while the other had a medium chance of developing into a tropical depression within the same period.
