MANILA, Philippines — The tail-end of a frontal system will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms to the Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula and Northern Mindanao, while the northeast monsoon will affect Luzon on Monday, according to the state weather bureau.
The tail-end of a frontal system is where cold winds from the northeast monsoon and the easterlies or warm winds from the Pacific Ocean, converge, Meno Mendoza, weather specialist at the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), explained in a weather forecast.
Pagasa’s forecast also showed the northeast monsoon will bring cloudy skies with light rains to the Ilocos region, Cordillera Administrative Region, Cagayan Valley, Bicol region, Aurora, and Quezon.
The northeast monsoon will likewise bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains to Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon, according to the weather bureau.
The rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.
