(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.

However, the weather disturbance was expected to bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms over Metro Manila, Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Central Luzon, Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon), Bicol Region, and Eastern Visayas.

The rest of Visayas, Mimaropa (Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan), Zamboanga Peninsula, BARMM (Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao), Northern Mindanao and Caraga Region, meanwhile, will be experiencing similar weather patterns but due to the southwest monsoon or "habagat," the national weather bureau said.
It added that the rest of the country would likely have partly cloudy to overcast skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms brought by the localized thunderstorms in 24 hours.
