MANILA, Philippines — Several weather systems, including the trough of a low-pressure area (LPA) outside the Philippine area of responsibility, will bring rain over some parts of the country on Tuesday, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.

“Inaasahan natin na dito sa banda sa Cagayan Valley, pati na rin sa Aurora at Quezon, magiging maulan dahil sa northeast monsoon. Dito sa may bandang palawan inaasahan naman na maaring maging maulan dahil sa trough ng LPA na nasa labas ng ating area of responsibility,” said Pagasa weather specialist Veronica Torres.

(We expect that it will rain here in Cagayan Valley and in Aurora and Quezon due to the northeast monsoon. It is expected to rain here in Palawan because of the LPA trough outside our area of responsibility.)

“Samantalang dito sa Metro Manila at nalalabing bahagi ng Luzon, magandang panahon pa rin ang inaasahan maliban sa mahihinang pagulan,” she added.

(Meanwhile, here in Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon, good weather is still expected except for light rains.)

On the other hand, the shear line will bring rain over Eastern Visayas, with the rest of Visayas and the entire Mindanao having relatively fairer weather with chances of rain and isolated thunderstorms.

Gale warning is also still raised on several of the country’s seaboards, particularly 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 coasts 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, Antique (Caluyo).
