The northeast monsoon and a tail-end of a cold front are the two dominant weather systems affecting the country this Thursday, the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.

According to the state weather bureau, a tail-end of a cold front would bring cloudy skies with scattered rain and thunderstorms over Quezon, Mindoro, Bicol region, and Eastern Visayas.

Meanwhile, the northeast monsoon would cause cloudy skies with scattered rain over the Cordillera region, Cagayan Valley, and Aurora, Pagasa said.

As for Metro Manila, the Ilocos region and rest of Central Luzon, and Calabarzon, Pagasa predicted partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain in these areas for Thursday.

Mindanao, the rest of Mimaropa, and Visayas, on the other hand, would experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain due to localized thunderstorms, the country’s weather agency added.   /kga
