By Ma. Cristina Arayata | Philippine News Agency

 

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said Thursday said several areas in Luzon will experience rain showers caused by the northeast monsoon and the shear line.

In its 4 a.m. weather bulletin, PAGASA said scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the shear line will dampen the provinces of Isabela, Quirino, Aurora and the northern portion of Quezon.

Rains caused by the northeast monsoon will be experienced over Cordillera Administrative Region and the rest of Cagayan Valley.

These areas may possibly experience flash floods or landslides due to moderate to at times heavy rains, PAGASA said.

It added that the northeast monsoon will also cause light rains over Ilocos Region.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country will experience isolated rain showers caused by localized thunderstorms.

Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas will continue to prevail over Luzon.

Rough to very rough seas are forecast over the seaboards of Batanes, the northern coast of Ilocos Norte, Cagayan including Babuyan Islands, Isabela, Ilocos Sur, La Union, Pangasinan, western coast of Ilocos Norte, Aurora, the coast of northern Quezon (General Nakar) including the northern and eastern coasts of Polillo Islands (Panukulan, Burdeos, northern and eastern coasts of Patnanungan and Jomalig)

PAGASA advised fishing boats and other small sea vessels not to venture into the sea, and larger sea vessels are alerted against big waves.

Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate with slight to moderate seas. (PNA)
