MANILA — A low-pressure area inside the Philippine area of responsibility is forecast to bring rains over parts of the Philippines on Wednesday, the state weather bureau PAGASA said.

The LPA — located over the coastal waters of Tuburan town in Cebu at 8 a.m. — is unlikely to develop into a tropical cyclone and could dissipate in the next 24 hours, the agency said.

However, PAGASA said the weather disturbance would still bring scattered rains over Visayas and parts of Southern Luzon.

Cloudy skies with scattered rain and thunderstorms stirred by the LPA could lash Visayas, Bicol region, Mimaropa, and Quezon, the weather forecaster said in its 4 a.m. bulletin.

It warned that flash floods or landslides due to "moderate to at times heavy rains" are possible.

The easterlies, or warm winds from the Pacific, could also bring the same weather conditions over the Caraga region, and residents there are urged to be alert for similar hazards such as flooding and landslides.

Residents in Metro Manila and elsewhere in the country could meanwhile experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, PAGASA said.  

The other LPA, located over the West Philippine Sea, dissipated at 8 a.m. this Wednesday.
