MANILA, Philippines — Good news: No need to cancel your plans on Friday since fair weather across the archipelago still prevails.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said the northeast monsoon would continue to affect Luzon, noting that this would bring cool winds into the area, especially at dawn and in the evening.
“Inaasahan natin bukas na magiging maganda at maaliwalas na panahon. Para sa buong araw, bahagyang maulap ang kalangitan pero may tsansa pa rin ng isolated na mahihinang pag-ulan,” Pagasa weather specialist Aldczar Aurelio said in a late Thursday afternoon public forecast.
(We’re expecting good and fair weather tomorrow. For the entire day, partly cloudy skies with chances of light, isolated rains may be experienced.)
He noted, however, that the state weather service is monitoring a circulation moving west toward Mindanao, which may enter the Philippine area of responsibility and develop into a low-pressure area.
