Pagasa issued a gale warning over the seaboards of Northern Luzon and eastern seaboards of Central and Southern Luzon as “sea travel is risky for small seacrafts, including all types of motorbancas.”

Meanwhile, the enhanced southwest monsoon, or locally called habagat, will bring moderate to intense rains in other areas of Luzon (especially the western portions) over the next three days.
