At 4:00 AM today, the weather forecast brings insights into the prevailing weather conditions across various regions in the Philippines. The synopsis indicates the influence of the Northeast Monsoon in Northern and Central Luzon, while Easterlies affect the rest of the country. Let’s delve into the forecast for each area:
Northern and Central Luzon: Cloudy skies with light rains are expected over Cagayan Valley, Aurora, Quezon, and the Bicol Region. These conditions are attributed to the Northeast Monsoon. However, they are anticipated to have no significant impact.
Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon: Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains are foreseen. Similar to the previous areas, this weather pattern is caused by the Northeast Monsoon, but it’s not expected to have any significant impact.
The rest of the country: Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms are expected due to Easterlies and localized thunderstorms. This brings the possibility of flash floods or landslides during severe thunderstorms.
Wind and Coastal Water Conditions: In Luzon and the eastern section of Visayas, moderate to strong winds from the East to Northeast will prevail, accompanied by moderate to rough coastal waters. Conversely, the rest of the country will experience light to moderate winds from the same direction, leading to slightly moderate coastal waters.
Additional Forecast: For the Visayas, Palawan (including Kalayaan Islands), and Occidental Mindoro, partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers and thunderstorms are expected, driven by Easterlies/Localized Thunderstorms. The wind will be light to moderate, with seas ranging from slight to moderate.
In the Bicol region, Northern Samar, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, and Romblon, cloudy skies with light rains or isolated light rains are forecasted. Moderate to strong winds from the East to Northeast will prevail, accompanied by moderate to rough seas.
As we navigate through today, it’s imperative for residents, particularly in areas prone to thunderstorms, to stay vigilant and prepared for any potential impact on daily activities or travel plans. Stay tuned for further updates as weather conditions may evolve throughout the day.
