A low-pressure area (LPA) located outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) continues to show signs of strengthening and may develop into a tropical depression within the next 24 to 48 hours, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Wednesday, Oct. 15.

- By ELLALYN DE VERA-RUIZ

PAGASA weather specialist Chenel Dominguez said the LPA was estimated at 1,765 kilometers east of northeastern Mindanao as of 3 a.m. on Wednesday.

Once it intensifies into a tropical cyclone and enters the PAR, it will be given the local name “Ramil.”

Dominguez said the potential cyclone may move closer to Northern Luzon and could bring rains over a large portion of Luzon by the weekend.
