MANILA — Scattered rains will prevail over the archipelago on Saturday, said the state weather bureau.
The northeast monsoon affecting northern and central Luzon will cause cloudy skies with scattered rains over Cagayan Valley, the Cordillera region and the provinces of Aurora and Quezon, and partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over Ilocos and the rest of central Luzon, said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).
Easterlies will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over eastern Visayas and Caraga.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers caused by localized thunderstorms.
Meanwhile, strong to gale force winds with rough to very rough seas will prevail over northern Luzon.
Moderate to strong winds will blow over central Luzon and the eastern part of southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Coastal waters along these areas will be moderate to rough.
Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate with slight to moderate seas, PAGASA said. (PNA)
