MANILA, Philippines — The southwest monsoon or ‘habagat’ will continue to bring cloudy skies and rain showers in most parts of Luzon.

Meanwhile, fair weather is expected to prevail in the rest of the country.

This is the forecast of Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) on Tuesday.

According to weather specialist Veronica Torres, the monsoon will still affect parts of Luzon, particularly in northern and central portions.

“Inaasahan natin na magiging maulan pa rin yung panahon na may posibleng may malalakas na pag-ulan dito sa may Ilocos region, pati na rin sa may Batanes at Babuyan Islands,” Torres said in an afternoon weather forecast.

(Rainy weather will continue [in Luzon] with possible heavy rains in Ilocos region, as well as in Batanes and Babuyan Islands.)

She added the monsoon would bring cloudy skies and scattered rain showers in some provinces in the Cordillera Administrative Region, Zambales, and Bataan.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country will experience fair weather, with chances of localized thunderstorms, especially in western parts of the country.
