Masallo said that as of 4 p.m., the LPA was located at 105 kilometers west of Laoag City (18.1°N, 119.4°E).

However, she said that the agency was still monitoring Pablo as it might intensify. But based on the agency's models, Pablo has slim chance of to regaining strength and expected to dissipate.

With this development , all public storm warning signal is lifted, Masallo said.

She added that northern Luzon, with the northeast monsoon, would experience light rains while Metro Manila and the rest of the country would have brief rain showers and thunderstorms. (PNA)
