It added that localized flooding is possible mainly in urbanized, low-lying, or near-river areas, and landslides may occur in highly susceptive areas.
The Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, and Central Luzon will experience cloudy skies and rain due to the northeast monsoon.
Metro Manila, the Ilocos Region, and the rest of Calabarzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains, also caused by “amihan”.
The rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms.
