Fair Saturday weather expected nationwide

MANILA, Philippines — Fair weather is expected nationwide on Saturday, although rain showers are possible in the afternoon and evening due to the easterlies, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).

 “Sa Metro Manila pati na rin sa ibang bahagi ng Luzon, patuloy na makakaranas ng maaliwalas na panahon lalo na sa umaga at tanghali,” said Pagasa weather specialist Ana Clauren-Jorda in the state weather bureau’s Friday afternoon bulletin.

 (In Metro Manila as well as in other parts of Luzon, fair weather will prevail, especially in the morning and afternoon.)

 “Pero pagsapit ng hapon at gabi mataas pa rin po ‘yung tiyansa ng panandaliang buhos ng ulan dala ito ng easterlies at localized thunderstorms,” she added.

(But by the afternoon and evening, there is still a high chance of brief showers due to the easterlies and localized thunderstorms.)

Fair weather is likewise forecast in the Visayas and Mindanao, with possible rain showers in the afternoon and evening due to thunderstorms. 

No weather disturbance is expected to form within the Philippine area of responsibility over the weekend, Pagasa said.
