Sporadic rains ‘precursory signs’ of coming wet season—Pagasa
MANILA, Philippines — The rains in some parts of the country over the past few days are “precursory signs” of the transition to the wet season, an official from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Tuesday.
However, Pagasa’s Climate Monitoring and Prediction Section Chief Ana Liza Solis told INQUIRER.net that they are still monitoring if the country is now officially transitioning from the dry to the wet season.

She added that the public must not be complacent, as there is still a 50 percent probability that the country will log a higher temperature until the end of the first two weeks of May.
