(The province of Palawan will be most affected by rain due to the easterlies in Luzon, expect partly cloudy or mostly cloudy skies and scattered rain showers and thunderstorms.)

“Sa natitirang bahagi ng Luzon asahan pa rin ang generally fair weather conditions lalo na sa umaga at tanghali,” he added.

(The rest of Luzon can expect generally fair weather conditions especially in the morning and noon time.)

Estareja also warned of hot and humid conditions in  Metro Manila — where the temperature may rise up to 34 degrees Celsius — as well as Central Luzon, Ilocos region, Cagayan Valley and Bicol region.

Visayas and Mindanao

The easterlies will also trigger rain in Eastern Visayas, the southern portion of Central Visayas, and the entire Mindanao.

“Mas malalakas po ‘yung mga pagulan pagsapit ng hapon hanggang sa gabi lalo na sa central portions ng Mindanao,” said Estareja.

(The rains will be stronger in the afternoon until the evening, especially in the central portion of Mindanao.)

The rest of Visayas, on the other hand, will experience generally fair weather.
