Rain and strong winds

A low-pressure area (LPA) west of Iba town in Zambales province has developed into a tropical depression, weather forecasters said Friday.

The tropical depression, “Florita,” is expected to enhance the southwest monsoon and bring rain and strong winds over the western sections of Luzon and the Visayas region, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said.

PAGASA did not raise public storm warning signals over Luzon and the Visayas.

The state weather bureau’s website said that as of 4 p.m. Friday, “Florita” was located 330 kilometers west of Dagupan City and is expected to be 510 km west of Laoag City by Saturday afternoon.

The tropical depression is currently packing maximum winds of 55 kilometers per hour near the center and is expected to move northwest at 11kph.

PAGASA also spotted another low pressure area 770 km northeast of Basco, Batanes, today.

“The public and the disaster coordinating councils concerned are advised to take appropriate actions and watch for the next bulletin to be issued at 11 p.m. today,” PAGASA said.
