“In September and October, we may experience localized near average to below average temperatures in parts of Northern and Western Luzon and Mindanao, while many parts of the country will remain under status of near to slightly above average temperatures,” said Adelino.
Pagasa announced last June 3 that it will suspend the issuance of daily heat index following the start of the rainy season on June 2.

Still, Pagasa advised residents in areas still experiencing extreme heat to take necessary measures to keep themselves safe.
Adelino also said that near normal rainfall to generally near to above normal rainfall conditions are forecast in parts of the country from June to November 2025.
