MANILA, Philippines — Cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms are expected on Tuesday in eastern Visayas and Mindanao, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
Pagasa said in its 4:00 AM weather bulletin that the prevailing easterlies or warm winds will affect the regions of Eastern Visayas, Caraga and Davao.
“Pero ‘yung nalalabing bahagi po ng Visayas at Mindanao, fair weather condition,” said Pagasa weather specialist Ariel Rojas, adding the possibility of isolated rainshowers could still come at night.
(But the remaining parts of Visayas and Mindanao will see fair weather conditions.)
Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the whole of Luzon will experience sunny weather, with isolated rainshowers starting in the afternoon.
The state weather service also said there are no low-pressure areas expected in the next three to five days.
No gale warnings were also raised across the archipelago, according to Pagasa.
“Wala po tayong nakataas na gale warning kaya’t malaya pong makakalayag ‘yung mga kababayan nating mangingisda o ‘yung may maliliit na sasakyang pandagat,” Rojas explained.
(There are no gale warnings raised so fishermen and owners of small boats can sail.)
