MANILA, Philippines — Hot and humid weather will prevail nationwide on Sunday with chances of rain showers due to easterlies, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa). 

Pagasa said generally fair weather is expected in the morning, while isolated rain showers will occur in most parts of the country from late afternoon to evening.

“Patuloy pa rin umiiral ang easterlies dito sa bahagi ng Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao kung saan makararanas tayo ng bahagyang maulap hanggang sa maulap na kalangitan,” weather specialist Grace Castañeda said in a morning forecast.

(Easterlies continue to affect parts of Southern Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, wherein we will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies.)

“Magiging mainit na panahon pa rin ang ating mararanasan sa tanghali at meron pa rin tayong mga tsansa ng pag-ulan dulot yan ng localized thunderstorms. Kaya pag tayo ay lalabas, huwag nating kalimutan yung panangga natin sa direktang init ng araw at hangga’t maari ay limitahan natin ang ating outdoor activities,” she added.

(The weather will be hot, especially at noon, with chances of rain showers due to localized thunderstorms. We advise the public to limit their outdoor activities or bring an umbrella if going out.)

Pagasa has not monitored any weather disturbance or low-pressure area that may enter the country’s area of responsibility for the next 24 hours.

No gale warning has been raised in any of the country’s seaboards, Castañeda also said.
