Cloudy skies and rain showers may prevail over the rest of the country on Tuesday, June 20, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said.

The state weather bureau said Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and localized thunderstorms.

These may bring about possible flash floods or landslides during severe thunderstorms.

“Mayroon tayong mga tiyansa ng mga isolated na mga pag-ulan, pagkidlat, at pagkulog lalong-lalo na sa hapon at gabi, at dito ‘yan lalong-lalo na sa area ng Mindanao dulot ng ITCZ,” PAGASA weather specialist Grace Castañeda said.

“Sa kasalukuyan, wala rin tayong mino-monitor o namamataan na sama ng panahon na maaaring makaapekto rito sa ating bansa,” she added.
