Pagasa sees cloudy Thursday with isolated rain showers
MANILA, Philippines — Cloudy skies and isolated rain showers and thunderstorms are expected in the eastern part of Luzon and the Samar provinces in the Visayas on Thursday due to two weather systems, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
The state weather bureau said that Cagayan, Isabela, Albay, Sorsogon, Masbate, Catanduanes, and the Samar provinces are expected to have cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to shear line or tail end of a cold front, while the northeast monsoon or “amihan” will brings cloudy skies and light rains to Aurora and Cagayan Valley.
The rest of the country will experience fair weather condition, according to Pagasa.
“Sa araw na ito makakaranas ng maulap na kalangitan at kalat-kalat na pag-ulan dulot ng shear line, ayan po ay sa Cagayan, Isabela, Albay, Sorsogon, Masbate at Catanduanes. Dahil naman sa northeast monsoon ay magiging maulap ang bahagi ng Cagayan Valley, pati na rin ang lalawigan ng Aurora,” Pagasa weather specialist Aldczar Aurelio said.
