The trough of Typhoon Yagi (formerly severe tropical storm Enteng) and the southwest monsoon or “habagat” continue to dampen areas across Luzon, causing the La Mesa Dam to overflow, the weather bureau said Thursday.

In an advisory issued at 7 a.m., the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the dam’s water level reached 80.17 meters, which is still above its spilling level of 80.15 meters.

Average basin rainfall for the next 12 hours is light to moderate.

Areas along the Tullahan River may be affected.

PAGASA advised people living near the riverbanks and low-lying areas to take appropriate actions.

Meanwhile, Yagi’s trough will bring scattered rains and thunderstorms in the Cordillera Administrative Region, Ilocos Norte, and Ilocos Sur.

The southwest monsoon will bring rains in Pangasinan, Zambales, Bataan, Occidental Mindoro, Metro Manila, La Union, Cavite, Batangas, Rizal, Laguna, Oriental Mindoro, Northern Palawan and the rest of Central Luzon.

Scattered rains and thunderstorms in Marinduque and Romblon are expected.

The rest of the country will experience isolated rain showers caused by localized thunderstorms.

PAGASA said the western section of Luzon will experience strong winds and rough seas, while the rest of the island will have moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas. (PNA)
