In its 4 a.m. weather bulletin, PAGASA said Ilocos, Cordillera Administrative Region, Batanes, Babuyan Groups of Islands, Zambales and Bataan will have cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the southwest monsoon.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers caused by “localized thunderstorms”.
