Amihan to bring cloudy skies, rains across Luzon

MANILA, Philippines — The northeast monsoon or “amihan” will affect Northern Luzon, bringing light rains in Metro Manila, the state weather bureau said Thursday.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, Cagayan Valley, Aurora and Quezon will have cloudy skies with scattered rains.

Pagasa warned of possible flash floods or landslides due to scattered moderate to at times heavy rains.

Meanwhile, partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains will prevail over Metro Manila, the rest of Luzon, and the Visayas.

Mindanao will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.
