MANILA, Philippines — The southwest monsoon or “habagat” will continue to dump rain over parts of the country on Monday, said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).

“Bukas ang epekto ng habagat maaasahan pa rin sa ilang bahagi ng Southern Luzon. Palawan at Bicol Region, may pagulan pagkidlat at pagkulog,” said Pagasa seniorweather specialist Chriz Perez.

(Tomorrow the effect of the southwest monsoon can still be expected in some parts of Southern Luzon. Palawan and Bicol Region will have rain, lightning and thunder.)

“Metro Manila at natitirang bahagi ng Luzon, generally maaliwalas ang panahon. Kung magkakaroon ng ulan sa dakong hapon at gabi dulot ito ng localized thunderstorms,” he added.
