Main Points
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) issued a weather warning on Saturday, October 31, as a low-pressure area (LPA) approached Eastern Samar, threatening the MIMAROPA region with scattered rains and thunderstorms during the Undas holiday period. As of 3 a.m. Saturday, the weather disturbance was located 320 kilometers east of Borongan City, Eastern Samar. The LPA has been steadily moving toward the Eastern Visayas coast since Friday afternoon. PAGASA forecasts cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms across Occidental Mindoro, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, and Palawan, including Puerto Princesa City. The bureau cautioned that moderate to occasionally heavy rainfall could trigger flash floods and landslides, particularly in mountainous regions and low-lying areas prone to inundation. In addition to the LPA, a shear line is affecting parts of Luzon, which is expected to bring cloudy skies and scattered rains to Quezon province. Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the CALABARZON region may experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms caused by localized weather disturbances. Across Luzon and the Visayas, light to moderate northeasterly to easterly winds are expected, with coastal waters ranging from 0.6 to 2.5 meters. The inclement weather coincides with the peak of travel for All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day, as thousands of passengers transit through ports connecting mainland Luzon to the island provinces of MIMAROPA. Authorities have advised residents and travelers to monitor official PAGASA forecasts and maritime advisories for updates on potential travel disruptions. As of the time of reporting, there have been no confirmed reports of weather-related casualties, evacuations, or maritime cancellations in the region.
