THE northeast monsoon or “amihan” affecting Northern and Central Luzon will bring light rain showers across the island Monday, the weather bureau said.
Light rains will prevail over the Bicol and Cagayan Valley regions, as well as the provinces of Aurora and Quezon. Isolated light rains will be experienced over the rest of Luzon.
Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) forecaster Obet Badrina said the “amihan” is likely to prevail until the third week of March.
He added that no tropical cyclone is expected to develop or enter the country this week.
Meanwhile, the easterlies will cause isolated rain showers or thunderstorms over the rest of the archipelago.
Severe thunderstorms could result in flash floods or landslides.
Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas will prevail across Luzon and the eastern section of the Visayas.
Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate with slight coastal waters, PAGASA said.
