The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) announced on Sunday that the country is set to experience fair weather over the next few days, with no storms detected on the horizon.

According to weather specialist Daniel James Villamil, the southwest monsoon is currently affecting only the western portion of Luzon. This weather system is bringing about cloudy conditions with scattered episodes of rain showers and thunderstorms in regions such as Ilocos, Batanes, and the Babuyan Islands.

“Expect generally fair weather across most areas of the country, except for isolated instances of showers and thunderstorms in the late afternoon or evening,” noted the Pagasa forecaster.

“We have not observed any signs of an impending storm in our recent monitoring,” he emphasized.

In the upcoming 24 hours, Pagasa predicts that Metro Manila and the rest of the nation will likely experience partly cloudy to overcast skies with occasional isolated rain showers and thunderstorms. (ai/mnm)
