TODAY (02 MAY), THE LOW PRESSURE AREA (LPA) IS EXPECTED TO BRING CLOUDY SKIES WITH RAINS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER BICOL REGION, EASTERN AND CENTRAL VISAYAS, NORTHERN MINDANAO, CARAGA, AND DAVAO REGION. MEANWHILE, INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE (ITCZ) WILL LIKELY CAUSE SCATTERED RAINSHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE REST OF VISAYAS AND THE REST OF MINDANAO. ELSEWHERE IN THE COUNTRY, ISOLATED RAINSHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS ARE STILL POSSIBLE.
