MANILA – The easterlies and the northeast monsoon (amihan) will continue to bring rains to parts of the country on Thursday, the state weather bureau said.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the regions of Eastern Visayas, Caraga and Davao and the provinces of Quezon, Camarines Norte and Catanduanes will experience scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the easterlies.
Meanwhile, amihan will bring rains to Cagayan Valley, Apayao, Kalinga, Mountain Province, Ifugao and Aurora.
PAGASA warned of possible flash floods and landslides in these areas due to moderate to heavy rains.
Isolated light rains are also expected over the Ilocos Region, the rest of Central Luzon and the rest of the Cordillera Administrative Region due to amihan.
The rest of the country will experience isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the easterlies.
Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas are forecast over the eastern sections of Luzon and the Visayas. Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate, with slight to moderate seas.
PAGASA said it is not monitoring any low pressure area that could develop into a tropical cyclone. (Cristina Arayata/PNA)
