Cloudy skies and light rains are expected across parts of Luzon on Tuesday as the northeast monsoon, locally known as amihan, continues to weaken, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said.
State meteorologists reported that the influence of the seasonal winds has gradually decreased and is now mainly affecting portions of Luzon.
Pagasa said forecasters have observed that the amihan’s effects may continue to weaken in the coming days.
According to the weather bureau, provinces including Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Apayao and Aurora may experience cloudy conditions with occasional light rainfall due to the monsoon.
Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon were forecast to have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with possible light rains brought by the same weather system.
In the Visayas and Mindanao, generally fair weather conditions were expected to prevail, although isolated thunderstorms may still develop due to localized weather patterns.
Moreover, thunderstorms may occur mostly in the afternoon or evening and could bring brief rain showers in some areas.
Pagasa also reported that no tropical cyclone or low pressure area is currently being monitored within or near the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR).
