MANILA, Philippines – Luzon and Western Visayas will continue to experience rainy weather for the next 3 to 5 days, state weather bureau PAGASA said on Saturday, August 13.
PAGASA weather forecaster Aldczar Aurelio told Rappler in a phone interview on Saturday that this is due to the southwest monsoon or habagat.
In its 11 am bulletin on Saturday, PAGASA said the southwest monsoon will bring moderate to occasionally heavy rains over Metro Manila, Cavite, Bataan, Zambales, and Ilocos Region.
Western Visayas and the rest of Luzon, meanwhile, will experience light to moderate rains with isolated thunderstorms.
“The rest of the country [will experience] good weather,” Aurelio said.
He added that the low pressure area located off Batanes is expected to leave the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) in the next few hours, and no other tropical cyclone is expected to enter PAR for now.
Heavy rains since Friday, August 12 have triggered the cancellation of classes in different areas of Luzon. – Jee Y. Geronimo/Rappler.com
