‘Medium chance’ of developing into tropical cyclone ‘Ramil’

- By MERLINA HERNANDO-MALIPOT

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) is closely monitoring a low-pressure area (LPA) located east of Southern Mindanao, which may enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) before the week is over, and could be named “Ramil” once it develops into a tropical cyclone.

In a public weather forecast on Tuesday, October 14, PAGASA Weather Specialist Chenel Dominguez said the LPA currently has a medium chance of developing into a tropical cyclone.

“Meron tayong mino-moni-tor na low pressure area dito sa labas ng ating Philippine Area of Responsibility. Possible itong pumasok ng ating PAR by Thursday or Friday bilang bagyo at papangalan itong Ramil (We’re currently monitoring a low-pressure area located outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility. This system may enter our PAR by Thursday or Friday as a tropical cyclone, and if it does, it will be named Ramil),” she explained.
