MANILA — The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) reported that cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms are expected over Metro Manila on All Saints’ Day.

This weather phenomenon is attributed to a low-pressure area (LPA) and a shear line.

In its 4 a.m. weather bulletin, PAGASA stated that the LPA over the coastal waters of Caramoran, Catanduanes, in combination with the shear line affecting the eastern sections of Northern and Central Luzon, will also bring cloudy conditions and scattered rains to mainland Cagayan, Isabela, Aurora, Bulacan, Calabarzon, Marinduque, and Camarines Norte.

Meanwhile, the northeast monsoon, known as “amihan,” is affecting the rest of Northern and Central Luzon, resulting in cloudy skies with rains over the Cordillera region, Nueva Ecija, and the remaining areas of Cagayan Valley.

The Ilocos region and the rest of Central Luzon will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rain showers.

In other regions, such as the Visayas, Mindanao, the remainder of Mimaropa, and the Bicol region, partly cloudy to cloudy skies are expected with isolated rains or thunderstorms, largely due to localized thunderstorm activity.

Here are the expected temperature ranges for some key areas:

Metro Manila: 25°C to 31°C
Baguio City: 16°C to 24°C
Laoag City: 23°C to 34°C
Legazpi City: 25°C to 30°C
Metro Cebu: 26°C to 32°C
Puerto Princesa City: 26°C to 31°C
Metro Davao: 25°C to 34°C

MANILA – The Philippine weather bureau reported on Thursday that parts of Luzon can expect rain showers from two distinct weather systems.

Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms are forecasted for the provinces of Quezon, Rizal, Laguna, and Camarines Norte, attributed to a shear line.

Meanwhile, a northeasterly surface windflow will bring rain to Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Apayao, Kalinga, and Aurora.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) warned that moderate to heavy rains in these regions may lead to flash floods and landslides.

PAGASA forecaster Patrick del Mundo mentioned that the rest of the country should expect isolated rain due to localized thunderstorms, with no gale warning issued for any part of the country.

Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas are expected in Northern and Central Luzon, while elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate, and seas will be slight to moderate.

MANILA – According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), most regions of the Philippines will enjoy generally fair weather over the next 24 hours.

In its 4 a.m. update, the weather agency reported that a low-pressure area has moved out of the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR). Consequently, only Palawan is expected to witness scattered rain showers and thunderstorms caused by its trough.

Provinces including Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Apayao, and Abra will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains due to the northeasterly surface wind flow.

Metro Manila, rest of the country

Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the country are also set to experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, attributed to the northeasterly surface wind flow and localized thunderstorms.

Throughout the day, the entire nation will experience light to moderate winds and slight to moderate coastal waters.

The presence of a low-pressure area (LPA) situated 1,170 km east of Eastern Visayas is expected to bring rain to various parts of the Philippines.

According to the 5 a.m. weather bulletin from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), scattered rain showers and thunderstorms are anticipated in Mindanao, the Bicol Region, and Eastern and Central Visayas due to the influence of the LPA’s trough.

PAGASA weather specialist Grace Castaneda noted that there is a low probability of this system developing into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours.

Castaneda also mentioned that the LPA might enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) in the next 24 to 48 hours. If it does, it could potentially move across Southern Luzon, leading to rainfall in that region over the coming days.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country can expect isolated rain showers caused by localized thunderstorms.

Overall, light to moderate winds and slight to moderate sea conditions will persist throughout the archipelago. (JR AMIGO/ai/mnm)
