MANILA -- Flashflood and landslides are threatening most parts of the Visayas and Mindanao due to the low pressure area (LPA) in Surigao City, reported Pagasa on Sunday.

Weather Forecaster Jori Lois said that as of 4 a.m.,

the LPA was spotted in the vicinity of Surigao City.

Loiz said there is still a possibility the weather disturbance will develop into a tropical cyclone if it gains strength while traversing the Sulu Sea.

 

 

 

He said the agency continues monitoring the LPA and once it intensifies into a tropical depression inside the country it will be named "Kiko" -– the first cyclone to affect the country this month and the 11th this year.

Due to the cloudiness of the LPA ,

he said the Visayas and the regions of Zamboanga Peninsula, Northern Mindanao, Caraga and Davao will experience cloudy skies with moderate to occasionally heavy rainshowers

and thunderstorms which may trigger flashfloods and landslides.

 

He said that most parts of Luzon including Metro Manila, Central Luzon,

Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Bicol Region and the rest of Mindanao will have cloudy skies with light to moderate rainshowers and thunderstorms.
