PAGASA: 'High' chance for LPA outside PAR to become tropical depression
As of 8 p.m. Thursday, the LPA (07d) was located 2,070 kilometers east northeast of extreme northern Luzon.
Meanwhile, another LPA (07c) that is also outside of PAR only has a medium chance of becoming a tropical depression, said PAGASA. The said LPA was last monitored at 820 kilometers northeast of extreme northern Luzon as of 8 p.m.
Further, an LPA that is a remnant of Tropical Depression 'Danas', or locally known as Typhoon Bising, remains outside of PAR and is unlikely to redevelop into a tropical depression again.
The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council said that one death was reported in Metro Manila due to Bising and the Southwest Monsoon, or Habagat. The said fatality is still being validated.
Meanwhile, 42 areas were submerged in floodwaters due to the rains brought by the storm and the Southwest Monsoon. —Vince Angelo Ferreras/LDF, GMA Integrated News

Four thousand individuals in Bauang, La Union, who were affected by the inclement weather in the past few weeks have received aid from GMA Kapuso Foundation through its Operation Bayanihan project. According to "24 Oras" Friday, among the beneficiaries of the project are husband and wife Paulo and Erlinda Hipol, whose house was devastated by the strong winds and rains. "Itong bagyo lang ho ang talagang naranasan ko talaga, siya ang nagpabagsak ng bahay ko," said Paulo. Paulo's life was also put at risk when a part of their collapsed house pinned him down. The couple has patched up wood scraps and iron sheets for temporary shelter, but food remains scarce. They have not yet returned to work selling fish because the fishermen have been unable to go out to sea. "Ang panawagan ko lang sa kanila, kung meron silang maitutulong sa akin, maski ano, tanggapin ko, maipatayo ko lang ang bahay ko," said Paulo. GMA Kapuso Foundation distributed relief goods and bread to the 4,000 individuals in Bauang, La Union. The residents were also given hygiene kits that were donated by a sponsor. "Marami po 'yung nasirang bahay, 'yung mga hanapbahay ng tao, hindi sila makapaghanapbuhay dahil malakas pa din ang alon.
