Roque also reminded citizens to continue to observe minimum health standards during inclement weather.
According to the 10 am advisory from the state meteorological office, one LPA was located west of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan, while another LPA was located east of the Bicol region.
Pagasa said both weather shocks are less likely to turn into a tropical depression in the next 24 hours.
“However, due to improvements in the cloud system from both disturbances over the past 12 hours, the probability of tropical cyclone formation at this time is not ruled out,” he said.
Moderate to heavy rains can be experienced in the Bicol region, Eastern Visayas, Quezon, Aurora, Bulacan, Rizal, Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, Dinagat Islands, Calamian Islands and Kalayaan Islands provinces.
