The state weather bureau Pagasa said on Tuesday that Tropical Depression Ambo may intensify and become a tropical storm within 24 hours.

Pagasa said in its 11 a.m. bulletin on Tuesday, May 12, that the trough or extension of Ambo will bring scattered light to moderate with at times heavy rainshowers during thunderstorms over Mindanao.

“Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 1 may be raised over portions of Eastern Visayas on Tuesday in anticipation of potentially strong winds associated with the TD,” Pagasa said.

Pagasa also warned of disruption of maritime activities in areas where the possible TCWS may be raised.

Residents in affected areas are advised to take precautionary measures and continue monitoring for updates, especially the local rainfall or thunderstorm advisories and heavy rainfall warnings.

Pagasa forecasted that Ambo will possibly make its landfall over Bicol Region.
