Partly cloudy to cloudy skies - except for isolated light to occasionally heavy rains, gusty winds and lightning - will prevail over Metro Manila and rest of the country, PAGASA added.
PAGASA located a low-pressure area at 690 km east of Cagayan's Tuguegarao City as of 3 p.m. Tuesday.

Coastal waters will be moderate to rough, noted PAGASA.
"Light to moderate winds blowing from the northeast to northwest will prevail over the Visayas and rest of Luzon and coming from the southwest over Mindanao with slight to moderate seas," PAGASA added.
According to PAGASA, tropical storm with international name 'Sanvu' was located some 2,705 km east of extreme Northern Luzon as of 3 p.m. Tuesday - still outside Philippine Area of Responsibility.
