Intense rains are expected in Metro Manila, Rizal, Pampanga, and Bulacan on Sunday as the state weather agency issued an Orange rainfall warning.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) raised the orange rainfall warning at 3 p.m, which means intense rainfall measuring 15 to 30 mm/hour.
These means flooding may be expected in areas that are low-lying and near river channels.
Meanwhile, Cavite, General Nakar in Quezon, Southern Zambales, and Bataan were put under yellow rainfall warning.
These areas will experience heavy rains, Pagasa said.
Light to moderate with occasional heavy rains are being experienced in Batangas, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, Laguna, the rest of Quezon, and the rest of Zambales, and may persist within three hours. /ee
