MANILA — A low pressure area (LPA) spotted east of Surigao City would bring rains in some parts of Mindanao, as the southwest monsoon continues to affect the country.

The state weather agency said Western Visayas region, and the provinces of Mindoro, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite and Batangas will experience rains caused by the southwest monsoon.

Metro Manila, Bulacan, Pampanga, Laguna, Rizal, Quezon, Surigao del Norte, Surigao del Sur, Compostella Valley and Davao Oriental will have scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the southwest monsoon and trough of LPA.

The rest of the country will have cloudy skies with rain showers and thunderstorms caused by localized thunderstorms.
