Brace for hot, humid Thursday due to easterlies — Pagasa

MANILA, Philippines — Easterlies affecting the eastern part of the country will bring hot and humid weather across the archipelago on Thursday, said the state weather bureau.

However, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) warned that isolated rains may still be encountered in Metro Manila and the rest of the country, especially during the latter part of the day.

“Bukas, generally mainit at maalinsangan pa rin ang panahon sa buong bansa. Kung magkakaroon ng mga pag-ulan na minsan ay  may kasamang pagkidlat at pagkulog, iyan ay dulot pa rin ng mga localized thunderstorm lalo na sa dakong hapon o gabi,” Pagasa weather specialist Chris Perez said in a Wednesday afternoon public forecast.

(Generally, hot and humid weather will persist in the country tomorrow. Rain coupled with lightning and thunder may still occur, particularly from afternoon to evening, due to localized thunderstorms.)

The state weather bureau has not issued a gale warning over the Philippines’ seaboards, indicating safe sailing conditions in the country.

It also listed the temperature range that may be experienced in the following cities and areas on Thursday:

• Metro Manila — 26  to 32 degrees Celsius

• Laoag —  25 to 31 degrees Celsius
