MANILA, Philippines – A low pressure area (LPA) has entered the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) and is expected to bring rains over some parts of Luzon and the Visayas.

Monsoon rains will also affect Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon where partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains will be experienced throughout the day.
The rest of the country, meanwhile, will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers due to localized thunderstorms.
The weather agency warns that flash floods or landslides during severe thunderstorms are possible in these areas,
