The country is experiencing a ridge of High
Pressure Area (HPA), partly cloudy to cloudy skies caused by localized thunderstorms.
Lack of
pressure area care directly leads to an increased stay in hospital.
This multi-pronged approach to
pressure area prevention has paid great dividends.
According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), the ridge of high
pressure area (HPA), an anti-cyclone system, will prevail over Northern and Central Luzon.
The well-marked low
pressure area is likely to move north-northwest ward in next 24 hours.
But the low pressure cell is an area of clockwise circulation meaning it causes a north wind on our coastline, thereby bringing the Angolan low
pressure area south along our coastline in a clearly defined trough of low pressure.
The Directorate General of Meteorology and Air Navigation (DGMAN) said the latest weather charts indicate a low
pressure area over the Sultanate which is expected to cause heavy rainfall and occasional thundershowers associated with strong winds, hailstorm and overflowing of wadis in some regions.
Meanwhile, a low
pressure area (LPA) was spotted 125 kilometers west of Sinait, Ilocos Sur.
7 (PNA) -- The public will continue to experience fair weather with isolated thunderstorms on Wednesday in most parts of the country because of the ridge of high
pressure area (HPA) extending towards Northern Luzon, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).
The atmospheric conditions went anomalous after a ridge (extension of high
pressure area) was extended over Balochistan and adjoining parts of the country including Karachi.
Met Office informed that a low
pressure area has developed over central parts of India which is likely to move northwest ward in next twelve hours and then it may persist over North India during next 3-4 days.
