MANILA – The northeast monsoon and easterlies will bring cloudy skies and scattered rains across much of the Philippines, according to the latest weather update Saturday (01 Feb 2025) from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).
In its 4 a.m. bulletin, PAGASA forecasted cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms for Bicol and Quezon, influenced by the easterlies. Cagayan Valley and Aurora will also experience cloudy skies and rain, but due to the northeast monsoon.
The weather bureau warned of potential flash floods and landslides in these areas, as moderate to heavy rainfall is expected.
Metro Manila, Ilocos, Cordillera, and parts of Central Luzon will see partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains, also driven by the northeast monsoon.
The rest of the country can expect partly cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms from the easterlies.
