Overcast skies to persist in parts of Vis-Min; cold weather in Luzon Tuesday – Pagasa

MANILA, Philippines — Rain and overcast skies are expected to prevail in parts of Visayas and Mindanao on Tuesday due to the shear line, while cold weather is expected to continue in Luzon, said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).

“Dito sa bahagi ng Luzon asahan po natin na magiging maaliwalas po ang ating panahon na malamig pa rin sa madaling araw hanggang sa umaga dahil yan sa amihan,” said Pagasa weather specialist Ana Clauren.

(Clear weather is expected in Luzon, with cold weather to prevail during the morning because of the northeast monsoon.)

“Sa bandang hapon naman po ay may posibilidad ng isolated light rains o ‘yung mga pagambon,” she added.

(In the afternoon, there is a possibility of isolated light rains or showers.)

Meanwhile, the shear line will bring rain and overcast skies in Eastern Visayas and the Caraga region and northern portions of Mindanao.

“Magiging makulimlim ‘yung kanilang panahon bukas at may mataas na tiyansa ng kalat kalat na pag ulan,” said Clauren.

(Their weather will be cloudy tomorrow and there is a high chance of widespread rain.)

The rest of Visayas and the Mindanao, on the other hand, will have relatively fairer weather with chances of isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.
