LOW PRESSURE AREA FORMERLY TS MELOR (NONA) UPDATE NUMBER 018 [FINAL]
Issued at: 8:00 AM PhT (00:00 GMT) Thursday 17 December 2015
Tropical Storm MELOR (NONA) has rapidly dissipated into an Area of Low Pressure (LPA) near the coast of Western Zambales due to the surge of cold dry Northeast Monsoon (Amihan) and the strong southwesterly upper- level winds that blow its deep cloudiness east-northeastward away from its low level circulation.
The LOW PRESSURE AREA (LPA) will continue to enhance the Northeast Monsoon (Hanging Amihan) bringing widespread rains with some thunderstorms across the eastern sections of Northern and Central Luzon today. Residents are advised to take precautionary measures against possible flashfloods or landslides especially during heavy downpour.
*Unless regeneration occurs, this is the final update on Melor (Nona).
