Manila: The shear line is expected to bring scattered rains over a large part of the country, the weather bureau announced. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) reported this in their early morning bulletin.
According to Philippines News Agency, PAGASA indicated that the weather system will result in cloudy skies accompanied by scattered rains and isolated thunderstorms across the Visayas, Romblon, Catanduanes, Camarines Sur, Albay, Sorsogon, Masbate, Dinagat Islands, Surigao del Norte, Surigao del Sur, Agusan del Norte, Camiguin, and Misamis Oriental. The bureau cautioned that moderate to heavy rains could potentially lead to flash floods or landslides in these areas.
The rest of Mindanao is predicted to have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms. Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains as a result of the northeast monsoon.
Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas are anticipated over the northern and eastern sections of Luzon and the Visayas, as well as the eastern section of Mindanao. The remaining parts of the archipelago will have light to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas, PAGASA noted.
