Meanwhile, the rest of the country will have generally humid weather, with some chances of isolated thunderstorms from afternoon to evening due to the easterly winds.
“Ang easterlies ang magdadala pa rin ng medyo mainit na tanghali pa rin sa ating bansa habang mas malaking tsansa ng mga pulo-pulo o isolated na pagkidlat at pagkulog bandang hapon hanggang sa gabi, kadalasan tumatagal ito ng isa hanggang dalawang oras,” Pagasa weather specialist Obet Badrina said in the weather forecast.
(The easterlies will still bring humid weather at noon to our country, while there are considerable chances of isolated thunderstorms from afternoon to evening; usually, these last from one to two hours.)
Badrina added that no low-pressure areas were being monitored inside and outside the Philippine area of responsibility and that the chance of a tropical cyclone forming by the end of the week was low.
