MANILA—The southwest monsoon or “habagat” would bring scattered rain showers in some parts of the country Friday, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.
In its forecast, the state weather bureau said Western Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula, and the provinces of Palawan and Mindoro will have cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms caused by the southeast monsoon.
Meanwhile, Typhoon “Maria”, which was last observed 1,965 kilometers east of southern Luzon outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility, is unlikely to enter the country, Pagasa said.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.
Winds will be light to moderate coming from the southwest to west, with slight to moderate sea conditions.
Temperature in Metro Manila will range from 25-32 degrees Celsius; Tuguegarao City 24-36 degrees Celsius; Baguio City 16-24 degrees Celsius; Metro Cebu 25-32 degrees Celsius; and Metro Davao 24-32 degrees Celsius. (Lily Ramos/PNA)
