The state weather bureau on Wednesday said the northeast monsoon (amihan) continues to affect Northern Luzon, while the easterlies are bringing warm and humid weather to much of the country. According to PAGASA’s latest forecast, Quezon, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, and Catanduanes may experience cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the easterlies, with possible flash floods or landslides during periods of moderate to heavy rainfall.
The Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, and Cagayan Valley can expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains brought by the northeast monsoon. Meanwhile, Metro Manila, the Visayas, the rest of Luzon, and Mindanao are forecast to have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, mainly due to localized thunderstorms and the easterlies. PAGASA advised the public to remain alert for possible flash floods or landslides during severe thunderstorms. PAGASA is also monitoring Typhoon In-Fa, which remains outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) and is not directly affecting the country.
