MANILA, Philippines — Isolated rains and thunderstorms are expected in western Mindanao due to the weak southwest monsoon, or “habagat”, while fair, warm weather is forecast in the rest of Mindanao, Visayas and most parts of Luzon, including Metro Manila, the state weather bureau said on Friday.

“Kaya ngayong araw makaaasa pa rin tayo ng kalat-kalat na pag ulan at thunderstorm sa Zamboanga Peninsula, ganun din po sa may lalawigan ng Basilan, Tawi-Tawi, Sulu, at kasama na rin po ang lalawigan ng Palawan,” Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) weather specialist Aldczar Aurelio said

Samantala itong buong Kabisayaan at itong nalalabing bahagi ng Mindanao, inyong mapapansin ay magiging fair weather po tayo kung saan bahagyang maulap hanggang sa maulap ang kalangitan maliban na lang po sa mga isolated na mga pag-ulan sa bandang hapon o gabi dahil sa localized thunderstorms,” he added.

Aurelio said most parts of Luzon, including Metro Manila, will continue to experience warm and fair weather due to the extension of the ridge of the high-pressure area.

Fair weekend weather

The ridge of high pressure area will strengthen beginning Saturday and is expected to “push southwest monsoon away” from the Philippines, Aurelio said.

“Kaya po sa weekend — inaasahan po natin itong habagat ay hindi na makaaapekto sa ating kalupaan. Kaya sa weekend, itong buong bansa ay makakaranas ng mainit at maaliwalas na panahon maliban sa mga isolated na mga pag-ulan,” said Aurelio.

(We are expecting that the southwest monsoon will no longer prevail this weekend, hence, the entire country will experience warm and fair weather, apart from isolated rains.)
