MANILA – The northeast monsoon or “amihan” will affect most of Luzon on Saturday, bringing overcast skies and some rains.

In its 4 a.m. weather bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the “amihan” will bring cloudy skies with rains to the Cagayan Valley and Cordillera regions, as well as Aurora province.

Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon will experience partly cloudy to at times cloudy skies with light rains, also due to the “amihan.”

On the other hand, partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms will prevail over Palawan, the Visayas, and Mindanao due to localized thunderstorms.

Winds in Luzon will be moderate to strong and headed northeast, resulting in moderate to rough seas.

The eastern sections of the Visayas and Mindanao will experience similar wind speeds but headed east to northeast, with moderate to rough seas.

The rest of the country, meanwhile, will have light to moderate winds headed northeast, with slight to moderate seas.

The temperature in Metro Manila will range from 24°C to 32°C; Baguio City, 15°C to 24°C; Laoag City, 24°C to 29°C; Legazpi City, 24°C to 32°C; Metro Cebu, 25°C to 30°C; and Metro Davao, 24°C to 33°C. (PNA)
