By MANILA, Philippines — A low-pressure area (LPA) formed west of the country but is not projected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR), the state weather agency said in its latest update.
Designated as 08C, the LPA developed from a cloud cluster on Friday night, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration’s (Pagasa) Saturday morning weather forecast.
“We do not see this entering the PAR. Generally, its movement will be west-northwestward or northwestward, away from any part of our landmass,” Pagasa weather specialist Grace Castañeda said in Filipino in the agency’s forecast.
