MANILA, Philippines—Enjoy clear and sunny skies in the next few days with no storm in sight, state weather forecasters said Saturday.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said easterly winds from the Pacific were the dominant weather system, bringing warm, moist winds over the archipelago.
“The weather will be great, clear and sunny especially in Southern Luzon and farther south, except for isolated thunderstorms,” forecaster Chris Perez said.
Metro Manila will experience generally fair, sometimes partly cloudy weather, with the possibility of light rains, he added.
At least one tropical cyclone is expected to visit the country in January, but there is no sign of one arriving in the next two to three days, Perez said.
According to Pagasa’s 24-hour weather outlook, Eastern Visayas will experience cloudy skies with light to moderate rain showers and thunderstorms.
Metro Manila and the regions of Cagayan Valley, Ilocos, Cordillera, and Central Luzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains. The rest of the country will be partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rains or thunderstorms, it said.
Moderate to strong winds blowing from the northeast will prevail over Northern Luzon and winds coming from the east to northeast over the rest of Luzon and Eastern Visayas, Pagasa said.
Coastal waters along these areas will be moderate to rough. Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate coming from the northeast with slight to moderate seas, it said.
