The entire archipelago will be cloudy with isolated rainshowers on Maundy Thursday as a low pressure area (LPA) approaches east of Mindanao, the state weather bureau said.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said that as of 4 a.m, the LPA was still outside the Philippine area of responsibility at 1,175 kilometers east of Mindanao.
“Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms will be experienced over Metro Manila and the rest of the country,” Pagasa said in its 5 a.m. forecast.
“Moderate to occasionally strong winds coming from the East to Northeast will prevail over Northern Luzon and its coastal waters will be moderate to occasionally rough.”
Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate coming from the East to Northeast stirring slight to moderate seas, the weather bureau added. CBB
