The cold weather-associated northeast monsoon or “amihan” will continue to affect Northern Luzon while the warm and humid easterly winds will prevail over the rest of the country.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration said the amihan will bring cloudy skies with light to moderate rains over Batanes and Babuyan Islands while partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains will persist over Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, Pangasinan, Cagayan, Isabela, Nueva Vizcaya, Quirino, Abra, Benguet, Ifugao, Kalinga, Apayao, and Mountain Province.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.
PAGASA warned of possible landslides or flash floods over mountainous or low-lying areas during severe thunderstorms.
A gale warning has been issued over the northern and western section of Northern Luzon due to rough seas.
PAGASA particularly advised fisherfolk not to set sail into the coastlines of Batanes, Calayan, Babuyan, and the northern coast of Ilocos Norte and Ilocos Sur due to rough to very rough seas that will be dangerous for small sea craft. (Ellalyn V. Ruiz)
