LPA may form in first week of Jan.
THE PHILIPPINES will close 2025 with generally fair weather, the state weather bureau said on Sunday, but warned that a low-pressure area (LPA) may form inside the Philippine area of responsibility in the first week of 2026.
In a 5 a.m. weather briefing, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration said the northeast monsoon is expected to weaken from Monday to Tuesday, bringing isolated light rains over Northern Luzon.
From Dec. 29 to Jan. 1, it said scattered rain showers are forecast over Eastern Visayas, Caraga and the Davao Region due to easterly winds, while the rest of the country may experience localized thunderstorms.
From Wednesday to Thursday, it warned of another possible surge of the northeast monsoon, which could again bring light rains to Northern Luzon.
Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms are also expected over the Bicol Region due to a shear line, the agency said.
Elsewhere, generally fair weather conditions are forecast, aside from isolated thunderstorms. — Chloe Mari A. Hufana
