MANILA, Philippines — Generally fair weather is expected to prevail over most of the country on Monday, with only weak short-lived rains forecasted during the afternoon until evening, said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
“Sa Metro Manila at sa nalalabing bahagi ng Luzon ay generally magiging maaliwalas ang panahon bukas ngunit dahil po sa northeastern monsoon ay patuloy pa rin nating inaasahang ang mahihinang pagulan,” said Pagasa weather Specialist Ana Clauren.
(In Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon, the weather will generally be clear tomorrow but due to the northeastern monsoon we are still expecting light rains.)
“Ngunit dito sa bahagi ng palawan may mga thunderstorms po tayong inaaasahan, madalas po ‘yan pagdating ng hapon o gabi,” she added.
(But here in Palawan we expect thunderstorms, often in the afternoon or evening.)
The entire Visayas and Mindanao will also experience good weather conditions with short-lived rain showers only expected to occur during the afternoon and evening.
No bad weather or typhoons that could possibly affect our country in the next 2 or 3 days is also being monitored, said Clauren.
Below are the forecasted temperature range in key cities/areas according to Pagasa for Monday:
