MANILA – The entire country will experience fair weather with isolated rain showers on Thursday (01 Aug2024)9 according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).

This weather pattern is expected to persist until Friday due to the influence of a ridge of high pressure, said PAGASA forecaster Aldczar Aurelio.

Localized thunderstorms may bring isolated rain showers, but the southwest monsoon (habagat) is currently not affecting the country. Aurelio also noted that PAGASA anticipates a break in monsoon rainfall events.

Throughout the country, light to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas will prevail.
