PAGASA: Tropical cyclone threat unlikely until end of November


PAGASA Tropical Cyclone Threat Unlikely Nov. 25 Dec. 1PAGASA said a tropical cyclone-like vortex may emerge over the Tropical Cyclone Information Domain (TCAD) with a “low likelihood” of becoming a tropical cyclone between Nov. 25 to Dec. 1.

The threat of a tropical cyclone affecting the Philippines after Pepito left the Philippine Area of Responsibility is unlikely until the end of next week, the weather bureau PAGASA said on Monday.

Based on its forecast, PAGASA said a tropical cyclone-like vortex may emerge over the Tropical Cyclone Advisory Domain (TCAD) with a “low likelihood” of becoming a tropical cyclone between Nov. 25 to Dec. 1.

However, the TCLV is seen to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR).

According to PAGASA, tropical cyclones in the TCAD are too far away to have any direct effect on the country but are close enough for closer monitoring.

Tropical Cyclone Pepito has left the PAR, PAGASA said Monday afternoon. 

It is seen to further weaken as it moves over the West Philippine Sea due to the incoming northeasterly wind surge.

The state weather bureau earlier explained that the absence of the Northeast Monsoon or Amihan caused tropical cyclones to enter the northern part of the country. 

Meanwhile, PAGASA said the number of tropical cyclones under the typhoon or super typhoon categories is increasing.

The country may also see one to two tropical cyclones entering PAR after Pepito before the year ends, PAGASA added. —NB, GMA Integrated News
