The low pressure area (LPA) spotted days ago off Mindanao has already dissipated, the state weather bureau said on Friday.

Pagasa said the LPA disappeared at 2 p.m. on Thursday, according to Anna Clauren, weather specialist for the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).

For now, there are no weather disturbances that will enter the Philippine area of responsibility or outside of it in the next two to three days.

Pagasa said before the year ends, there is still a possibility that we may experience low pressure areas.

On Saturday, Christmas Day, she said the northeast monsoon, or “amihan,” would continue to affect most parts of Luzon, especially the northernmost part, bringing partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain.

Mindanao is still affected by the intertropical convergence zone, bringing cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms in Surigao del Norte, Surigao del Sur, Dinagat Islands and Davao Oriental, according to Pagasa.
