(UPDATE) MANILA, Philippines – The state-run weather agency on Tuesday did not rule out the possibility of the low pressure area (LPA) off Camarines Norte intensifying into a tropical depression but said it would be short-lived.
Weather specialist Robert Badrina of the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) reiterated that the LPA, currently over the coastal waters of Paracale town, also in the province, may still become a tropical depression butwould only last for a day.
“It would eventually dissipate,” the Pagasa forecaster said.
