What Happened to the Tropical Ripple? Its still there… barely

How about that ripple we were talking about earlier this week in the tropics?  In short its still there and really following about the forecast that we expected. A “blob” of sorts is rolling near Palau today and expected to linger near the east coast of the Philippines.

The good news is that this could enhance some rain showers for Visayas and Mindanao this coming weekend while increasing cloud clover thus reducing some of the blazing summer temperatures for the area.

Unfortunately outside of localized areas it does not look like Luzon will share in this respite from the heat and the rainfall.

Tropical season is coming soon though so be positive and even though rain is needed the sunny skies are to be enjoyed. We will also have a seasonal outlook for this coming tropical season too.
