Pagasa: Rainy in Luzon, fair weather in Visayas, Mindanao

MANILA, Philippines — A cloudy, rainy Friday due to the southwest monsoon, or “habagat,” is forecast in Luzon, while fair weather is expected in the Visayas and Mindanao, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).

“Throughout Luzon, we will experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms,”  Pagasa weather specialist Daniel Villamil said in Filipino in an early morning update.

Villamil said the habagat will affect northern and central Luzon the most.

“Fairer weather will prevail in the Visayas and Mindanao,” Villamil added.

Meanwhile, Pagasa is closely monitoring a low-pressure area (LPA) some 1,035 kilometers east of southeastern Mindanao.

Villamil said the LPA has a slim chance of becoming a tropical cyclone in the next 24-48 hours and will remain far from the country’s landmass.

This comes as the country is still recovering from the effects of habagat, enhanced by Typhoon Carina, which exited the Philippine area of responsibility Thursday.
