LAPU-LAPU CITY, Cebu — The effects of the southwest monsoon, or habagat, have eased over the Visayas after bringing persistent rains in recent days, the state weather bureau said Sunday, July 26.
In its daily forecast, the Visayas Pagasa Regional Services Division (PRSD) said monsoon rains will continue to affect Aklan, Antique, Occidental Mindoro, and Palawan, including the Kalayaan Islands.
The rest of the Visayas, however, may experience isolated rain showers and thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms or brief weather disturbances triggered by intense heating.
