‘Amihan’ weakens, easterlies to bring isolated rains

THE easterlies will continue to bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers in most parts of the country, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said Sunday.

The weather bureau also said that easterlies or winds coming from the east passing through the Pacific Ocean that brings warm and humid weather will be the only weather system to affect the country in the coming days as the northeast monsoon or “amihan” continues to weaken.

In its 24-hour public weather forecast, PAGASA said the easterlies will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms in the province of Aurora.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers and thunderstorms due to the easterlies and localized thunderstorms.

Light to moderate winds will be felt across the archipelago, with slight to moderate seas, PAGASA said.

The temperature in Metro Manila will range from 25°C to 33°C; Baguio City, 16°C to 25°C; Laoag City, 23°C to 31°C; Legazpi City, 25°C to 32°C; Metro Cebu, 26°C to 31°C; Puerto Princesa City, 26°C to 33°C; and Metro Davao, 25°C to 34°C. (PNA)
