MANILA, Philippines — A hot and humid weather especially during noon is expected over most parts of the country for Monday, state meteorologists said.
According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) weather forecast on Sunday afternoon, rains may still be expected on the western side of Luzon due to the southwest monsoon or Habagat.
Isolated thunderstorms may also bring rains during the afternoon and by night, but these would only last for a short time, Pagasa noted.
Meanwhile, Typhoon Haishen (formerly Kristine) continues to move away from the country and is currently located 1,295 kilometers northeast of extreme northern Luzon.
Temperatures over Luzon will be hot, ranging from 26 to 33 degrees Celsius in Metro Manila, Puerto Princesa, and Legazpi, while Tuguegarao will register temperatures between 24 to 34 degrees.
The Visayas and Mindanao meanwhile will have temperatures of between 26 to 33 degrees Celsius in Tacloban, Cebu, Iloilo, and in Davao, while it is expected to be between 25 to 34 degrees Celcius in Zamboanga.
Pagasa expects warm weather to continue for the majority of the coming week.
