Pagasa: Expect some Sunday rain showers, overcast skies

MANILA, Philippines — Many parts of the country will have overcast skies and possible rain showers on Sunday as a result of various weather systems, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.

“Para sa magiging lagay ng panahon ngayong araw, maulap na kalangitan at pagulan ang mararanasan na dulot ng amihan dito sa bahagi ng Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Bicol region at sa mga lalawigan ng Aurora, Quezon, Marinduque at Oriental Mindoro,” said Pagasa weather specialist Veronica Torres.

(Cloudy skies and rain will be experienced due to the northeastern monsoon in the Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Bicol Region and the provinces of Aurora, Quezon, Marinduque and Oriental Mindoro.)

“Samanatala dito sa Metro Manila, maging sa nalalabing bahagi ng Luzon, magiging bahagyang maulap hanggang maulap ang panahon na may mahihinang pagulan o pagambon dulot ng amihan,” she added.

(Meanwhile in Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon, it will be partly cloudy to cloudy with light rains due to the amihan.)

No low pressure area is currently being monitored in and around the Philippine area of responsibility.

A cloud cluster east of Mindanao, however, is being monitored due to its chance to develop into an LPA.

The shear line is also expected to bring scattered rains toEastern Visayas, the Caraga region and Davao Oriental.

The rest of Visayas and Mindanao, on the other hand, have relatively fairer weather with chances of rain due to localized thunderstorms.

Pagasa raised gale warnings over Batanes, Cagayan including Babuyan Islands, Isabela, Aurora, Quezon including Polillo Island, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, Catanduanes, Burias Island, eastern coast of Albay, eastern coast of Sorsogon, Northern Samar, eastern coast of Eastern Samar, eastern coast of Dinagat Islands, eastern coast of Siargao, and Bucas Grande Islands, Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, Pangasinan, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, Occidental Mindoro including Lubang Island, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, Palawan including Cuyo and Kalayaan Islands and Antique.
