2 weather systems to bring rains over PH

Two weather systems – the easterlies and the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) – will bring rains over some areas of the country, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said Sunday, Oct. 2.

In its 5 a.m. bulletin, the weather bureau said the eastern sections of Luzon and Visayas particularly Isabela, Aurora, Quezon, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, and Catanduanes will experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to easterlies.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country, particularly the southern portion of Mindanao, will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to easterlies and ITCZ.

PAGASA warned that possible flash floods or landslides may occur due to moderate to at times heavy rains.

Moderate to strong winds heading northeast to east and moderate to rough seas will prevail in northern Luzon.

The temperature ranges between 25.0 °C and 32.4 °C. – gb
