MANILA – Three weather systems will continue to bring rains and cloudy skies across various parts of the country, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) reported early Saturday (30 Nov 2024).
In its 4 a.m. weather bulletin, PAGASA identified the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), the shear line, and the northeast monsoon (amihan) as the prevailing systems affecting the country’s weather.
ITCZ Effects: Mindanao, Eastern Visayas, Central Visayas, the Negros Island Region, Aklan, Capiz, Iloilo, and Palawan will experience cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms.
Shear Line Impact: Scattered rains and thunderstorms are forecast for the Bicol Region, Quezon, Laguna, and Rizal.
Amihan Influence: The northeast monsoon will bring cloudy skies with rain to Cagayan Valley, the Cordillera Administrative Region, and Aurora.
Other parts of the country can expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms.
Sea and Wind Conditions
Northern Luzon and the eastern section of Central Luzon will have strong winds and rough coastal waters. Moderate winds and seas are expected for the rest of Luzon, while the rest of the archipelago will experience light to moderate winds and seas.
PAGASA advises the public to remain cautious of possible flash floods and landslides, particularly in areas prone to heavy rainfall.
