MANILA, Philippines – The low pressure area (LPA) inside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) will continue to trigger rain in parts of Luzon on Saturday, August 6.

In its 11 am advisory on Saturday, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the LPA was already 265 kilometers west northwest of Dagupan City, Pangasinan.

It remains less likely to develop into a tropical depression, at least in the next 24 hours, but rain will persist on Saturday.

“Under these conditions, scattered flooding and rain-induced landslides are likely, especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards,” PAGASA warned.

Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms are also expected in these areas:
