MANILA, Philippines — Hot and humid weather conditions will continue to prevail throughout the country on Thursday, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said, even if the occurrence of isolated thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening is likely.

“Inaasahan pa rin natin ang mainit at maalinsangang panahon na may tiyansa ng mga isolated or localized thunderstorms dito sa Luzon, including Metro Manila,” said Pagasa weather specialist Raymond Ordinario.
