Rain will continue over a majority of the country on Tuesday due to weather systems, specifically, the shear line and the northeast monsoon says Pagasa | Satellite photo from Pagasa
MANILA, Philippines — The northeast monsoon, locally known as the “amihan,” and the shear line are expected to continue bringing rain over several parts of the country on Tuesday, said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
Cold weather, said Pagasa weather specialist Raymond Ordinario, should also be expected in Luzon until the end of the year due to the northeast monsoon.
“Dito sa Luzon area, patuloy pa rin ang makulimlim na panahon na may mahihinang paguulan diyan sa Cagayan Valley, Aurora, Quezon at Bicol Region, samantalang maulap na papawirin na may kalat kalat na pagulan ang mararanasan pa rin diyan sa Palawan area,” said Pagasa weather specialist Raymond Ordinario.
(Here in the Luzon area, cloudy weather will continue with light rains in the Cagayan Valley, Aurora, Quezon, and Bicol Region, while cloudy skies with scattered showers will still be experienced in the Palawan area.)
“Ang nalalabing bahagi ng Luzon, including Metro Manila, ay magkakaroon ng maaliwalas na panahon maliban na lang sa mahihinang pagulan,” he added.
(The rest of Luzon, including Metro Manila, will have clear weather aside from light rains.)
Meanwhile, generally cloudy conditions with widespread rain showers are still expected to continue throughout Visayas and Mindanao due to the effects of the shear line.
Generally fair weather conditions with chances of rain and thunderstorms are expected over the remaining parts of Mindanao.
Meanwhile, no low-pressure area or storms are expected to form within the Philippine area of responsibility within the next two or three days.
“Lumiliit na ang tiyansa magkaroon ng bagyo, bago matapos ang 2022 (The chances of a typhoon forming before the end of 2022 is shrinking),” said Ordinario.
