Metro Manila and the rest of the country should expect partly cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the “habagat” and localized thunderstorms.

Light to moderate winds headed southwest to south will blow over the entire country, with slight to moderate coastal waters.

The temperature in Metro Manila will range from 24°C to 33°C; Tagaytay City, 21°C to 31°C; Puerto Princesa City, 25°C to 32°C; Metro Cebu, 26°C to 32°C; and Metro Davao, 25°C to 32°C. – gb
