MANILA – The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) forecasts that partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers will persist nationwide, as detailed in the 4 a.m. weather bulletin on Saturday.
The northeast monsoon affecting Northern Luzon will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over the Ilocos, Cordillera, and Cagayan Valley regions. Meanwhile, the rest of the country, including Metro Manila, can expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the influence of easterlies and localized thunderstorms.
PAGASA warns of the potential for severe thunderstorms that could lead to flash floods or landslides in vulnerable areas.
Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough coastal waters are anticipated over extreme Northern Luzon and the eastern section of the country, while the rest of the archipelago will experience light to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas.
