Improved weather seen as Ada moves awayThe center of Ada, with maximum sustained winds of 55 kilometers per hour near the center and gustiness of up to 70 kph, was found at 465 kilometers east of Casiguran, Aurora at 4 p.m. yesterday. MANILA, Philippines — Most parts of the country may see generally fair weather today, as Tropical Depression Ada continues to move away, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). PAGASA noted the new surge of the northeast monsoon that brings “dry air entrainment” may cause the further weakening of Ada. The trough or extension of Ada will bring “cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms” over Camarines Sur and Catanduanes. The regions of Cordillera and Cagayan Valley may see “cloudy skies with light rains” and “partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains” over the Ilocos Region and the provinces of Nueva Ecija, Tarlac and Zambales.
