The northeast monsoon, known as ‘Amihan,’ is expected to bring overcast conditions with occasional light rainfall to Northern and Central Luzon.

According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), the Ilocos and Cordillera regions, Cagayan Valley, and Central Luzon will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rain on Friday.

Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the country can anticipate partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers and thunderstorms. This weather pattern is due to a combination of a low-pressure area (LPA) and localized thunderstorms, as reported in the 4 a.m. bulletin by PAGASA.

In terms of wind and sea conditions, Northern Luzon can expect moderate winds and coastal waters, while the rest of the country will experience light to moderate winds and seas with slight to moderate waves.

Here are the temperature ranges for selected areas:

Metro Manila: 24°C to 31°C
Baguio City: 17°C to 24°C
Laoag City: 25°C to 32°C
Legazpi City: 25°C to 33°C
Metro Cebu: 26°C to 32°C
Puerto Princesa City: 25°C to 33°C
Metro Davao: 25°C to 31°C”
