MANILA, Philippines — The entire country is expected to have generally fair weather on Thursday, Sept. 22, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.
“Generally fair ang panahon na mararanasan sa buong Luzon. Mainit o sisilip ang haring araw at may tiyansa lang ng pulo-pulong ulan o pamumuo ng thunderstorms bandang tanghali hanggang sa gabi,” said Pagasa weather specialist Joey Figuracion.
(Generally fair weather will be experienced throughout Luzon, but there is a chance of isolated rain or thunderstorms around noon to night.)
Figuracion also said that the same fair weather conditions would prevail over Visayas and Mindanao, with the same chance of isolated rain and thunderstorms from noon through the evening.
He added that no tropical cyclones are still expected to form within the Philippine Area of Responsibility in the next three days.
Meanwhile, the low-pressure area being monitored by Pagasa the past few days has officially left the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
The forecast temperature range in key cities/areas according to Pagasa:
Metro Manila: 25 to 33 degrees Celsius
Baguio City: 16 to 26 degrees Celsius
Laoag City: 25 to 33 degrees Celsius
Tuguegarao: 25 to 35 degrees Celsius
Legazpi City: 25 to 32 degrees Celsius
Puerto Princesa City: 24 to 30 degrees Celsius
Tagaytay: 22 to 31 degrees Celsius
Kalayaan Islands: 26 to 31 degrees Celsius
Iloilo City: 25 to 31 degrees Celsius
Cebu: 25 to 31 degrees Celsius
Tacloban City: 25 to 31 degrees Celsius
Cagayan De Oro City: 24 to 32 degrees Celsius
Zamboanga City: 23 to 30 degrees Celsius
Davao City: 24 to 31 degrees Celsius
No gale warning is also raised, as only slight to moderate sea conditions are expected in the country’s surrounding seaboards.
“Kaya naman safe ang panglalayag, kasama na diyan ‘yung ating mga kababayang gumagamit ng maliliit na sasakyang pandagat,” said Figuracion.
(That is why sailing is safe, including to our compatriots who use small marine vessels.)
