MANILA, Philippines — Overcast skies and rain showers are expected in Metro Manila and other parts of Luzon and the Visayas on Tuesday due to southwest monsoon or “habagat”, according to the state weather bureau.

“Based on our satellite image, we have spotted thick cloud clusters, particularly in Southern Luzon and parts of the Visayas,” Rhea Torres, weather specialist of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), said in Filipino.
