MANILA, Philippines — Several parts of the country will experience rain due to the shear line, the northeast monsoon, locally known as the “amihan,” and the trough of a low pressure area (LPA) outside the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR), said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
“Patuloy pa ring iiral itong northeast monsoon at magdadala ng pagulan lalong lalo na sa Extreme Northern Luzon, samantalang sa eastern sections ng Luzon ay makakaranas ng maulap na kalangitan na may kalat kalat na pagulan dahil sa shear line,” said Pagasa weather specialist Rhea Torres.
(This northeast monsoon will continue to bring rain especially in Extreme Northern Luzon, while the eastern sections of Luzon will experience cloudy skies with scattered rain due to the shear line.)
Western Luzon, on the other hand, will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with chances of rain also due to the shear line, while Puerto Princesa and Kalayaan Islands will have generally fair weather conditions.
