MANILA, Philippines — No low-pressure areas or storms were detected within the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) on Holy Tuesday, but two weather systems are forecast to affect the country, the state weather bureau said.
According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) in its latest forecast, the frontal system will affect parts of Northern Luzon, while the easterlies will influence weather conditions in the rest of the country.

“Wala pa rin tayong minomonitor na anumang bagyo o low pressure area sa loob at labas ng PAR, pero meron tayong dalawang weather system na nakakaapekto dito sa ating bansa sa ngayon,” said Pagasa weather specialist Chenel Dominguez.
(We are still not monitoring any storms or low-pressure areas inside or outside the PAR, but we do have two weather systems affecting our country right now.)
The frontal system, according to Dominguez, is expected to bring cloudy skies and rain over Batanes, Cagayan, and Apayao in Northern Luzon.
Meanwhile, the easterlies are forecast to continue bringing hot and humid temperatures over the rest of the country, with chances of rain due to localized thunderstorms.
In some parts of Mindanao, however, rain due to the easterlies is expected, specifically in the Zamboanga Peninsula, Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi.
