Sunday weather forecast: Cloudy skies with possible rain showers

MANILA, Philippines — The entire nation will experience cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms and the easterlies, or warm wind from the Pacific Ocean, the state weather bureau said Sunday.

In its 4 a.m. live weather update, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said that the easterlies continue to prevail over the eastern section of the country.

“Easterlies pa rin po ang nakaka-apekto sa silangang bahagi ng bansa, kaya asahan po natin na mas mataas po ang tsansa ng mga thunderstorms sa silangang bahagi po ng kapuluan,” weather specialist Sheilla Reyes said.

(Easterlies continue to prevail over the eastern section of the country, that’s why there is a high chance of thunderstorms over the eastern parts of the country.)

“Subalit mas mataas po ang tsansa ng mga isolated na mga pag-ulan or thunderstorms, lalong lalo na sa dakong hapon,” Reyes added.

(But there is a high chance of isolated rains or thunderstorms, especially during the afternoon.)
