The ITCZ affecting southern Luzon and Visayas will bring cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms over Western and Central Visayas, the Zamboanga peninsula and Palawan.

Coastal waters in northern Luzon will be moderate to rough while slight to moderate in Visayas and Mindanao and the rest of Luzon. (Lily O. Ramos/PNA)
