MANILA – Most parts of the country will experience isolated rain showers, the weather bureau said Friday.

The northeast monsoon or "amihan" affecting Northern and Central Luzon will bring light rains over the Ilocos and Cordillera regions, Cagayan Valley, and Central Luzon, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said in its 4 a.m. weather bulletin.

The rest of the country will have isolated rain showers caused by localized thunderstorms.

Flash floods or landslides are possible during severe thunderstorms, PAGASA said.

Partly cloudy to cloudy skies will prevail over the entire archipelago.

Meanwhile, moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas will prevail over the eastern section of Luzon and the Visayas. 

Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate with slight to moderate seas, PAGASA said. (PNA)
