“Samantalang sa eastern portion ng Luzon magiging maulap na may mga pagulan, samantalang sa nalalabing bahagi ng bansa kabilang ang Metro Manila, partly cloudy to cloudy skies,” she added.

(In the eastern portion of Luzon, it will be cloudy with rain showers, while in the rest of the country, including Metro Manila, partly cloudy to cloudy skies.)
