MANILA – Overcast skies will reign in most parts of the country on Saturday, Jan. 29, brought by the shear line or the tail-end of a frontal system.

In its 4:00 a.m. weather bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms will prevail in the Ilocos and the Cordillera regions, Batanes, and Cagayan due to the shear line.

Light to moderate winds headed southeast to southwest will blow over the Visayas and the rest of Luzon, with slight to moderate seas.
