MANILA, Philippines — The regions of Cagayan Valley, Cordillera and Ilocos will have cloudy skies with light rains on Tuesday, the state weather bureau said.

The rains will be caused by the prevailing northeast monsoon or hanging amihan, the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said.

“Bicol region and Quezon province will experience cloudy skies with light to moderate rainshowers and thunderstorms,” Pagasa said.

Partly cloudy to cloudy with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms mostly over the eastern sections are forecast in Metro Manila and the rest of the country.

Moderate to strong winds blowing from the northeast to east will prevail over Luzon and its coastal waters will be moderate to rough, Pagasa said.

Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate coming from the northeast to east with slight to moderate seas, it added.
