The Philippine Atmospheric geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA)currently monitors a potential cyclone and an inter-tropical convergence zone (ITCZ) that may cause flash floods and landslides in the eastern part of the country.
According to PAGASA's November 3 advisory, a shallow low-pressure (SLPA), which may develop into a cyclone was estimated at 380 km east-northeast of Borongan, Eastern Samar.
"Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms may be expected in the country especially over the Eastern Luzon, Eastern Visayas and Northeastern Mindanao," PAGASA added.
It is not certain though if the SLPA will develop into a cyclone. And if it would, while still inside Philippines territory, it will be named "Sendong".
