Meanwhile, the entire archipelago will experience light to moderate winds moving southeast to south, with slight to moderate seas, PAGASA said.

The temperature in Metro Manila will range from 26°C to 33°C; Baguio City, 18°C to 33°C; Laoag City, 25°C to 33°C; Legazpi City, 26°C to 33°C; Metro Cebu, 25°C to 33°C; and Metro Davao, 24°C to 32°C. – gb
