The southwest monsoon or “habagat” will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over the western sections of Northern and Central Luzon, the weather bureau said Saturday, July 1.

In its 4:00 a.m. weather bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers and thunderstorms due to the “habagat” and localized thunderstorms.

The Visayas and Mindanao will have the same wind conditions, but blowing east to southeast.

Coastal waters across the archipelago will be slight to moderate.
