A La Niña watch alert was issued by the Philippine weather bureau in March, indicating that the phenomenon is likely to occur this year.
Recently, there has been growing concern about whether La Niña has arrived in the Philippines due to the continuous heavy rains caused by several tropical cyclones, such as Enteng and Carina, along with the enhanced effects of the Southwest Monsoon.
