MANILA – Parts of the country will experience some rains on Saturday, Feb. 26, brought by the shear line at the eastern section of central and southern Luzon and by the northeast monsoon, locally known as “amihan,” in the northern portion and the rest of central Luzon.

In its 4:00 a.m. weather bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms will prevail over the Caraga region brought by the easterlies.

Aurora and Quezon will have cloudy skies with rains brought by the shear line, which is the convergence of northeasterly and easterly winds that form rain clouds.

Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains will prevail over the Ilocos, Cordillera, and Cagayan Valley regions, as well as the rest of central Luzon, brought by the “amihan.”

Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers brought by localized thunderstorms.

Moderate to strong winds headed northeast will blow over northern Luzon, the eastern section of central and southern Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao.

The rest of the country will have light to moderate winds headed northeast.

The temperature in Metro Manila will range from 23°C to 33°C; Baguio City, 14°C to 23°C; Puerto Princesa City, 25°C to 31°C; Metro Cebu, 25°C to 31°C; Cagayan de Oro City, 24°C to 28°C; and Metro Davao, 24°C to 29°C. (PNA) – bny
