[quote:Agent MIB:MV80MjM1ODY5Xzc3MDkzMzY4XzNGMERBQkQw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 8311493:MV80MjM1ODY5Xzc3MDg5NzgzXzYzODgzRURF] [quote:Agent MIB:MV80MjM1ODY5Xzc3MDg5NjkyX0M1NjU1M0U=] The entire Lake Taal is a 20km wide caldera with more than a dozen volcanic cones within it. Wreaking havoc in Metro Manila due to ash fall. [b]What's worse is there is a LPA (Low Pressure Area) that can cause moderate to heavy rainfall[/b]. Mix the ash with rain and a lot of buildings will collapse under the weight. Manila's largest mall MOA (Mall of Asia) is closed due to safety concerns. Last report NAIA airport is still closed to flight operations. DOST-PHILVOCS has raised Taal Volcano to [s]Alert Status 5[/s]Alert Status 4 (fixed typo). This means they expect a larger eruption to occur soon. It has more destructive power than Mt. Pinatubo due to its proximity to Metro Manila, the nations highest population density. [/quote] The LPA or invest 90W is too far to even affect it look at satellite imagery most of its convection is in a poleward motion not even going to the Philippines. Global models don't even have it going to the Philippines or even intensify it because of unfavorable upper level environment, HIGH SHEAR and there's a weakness in the subtropical ridge that's why the poleward motion. [/quote] The LPA is inside the PAR and mentioned it could cause rain with a tail end of cold front near Northern Luzon. The high wind sheer is due to the Amihan monsoon flow. Thanks for pointing out my mistakes. It was getting late and I was too tired to proofread my posts. [/quote]
