Amihan brings cloudy skies, light rains over parts of Luzon

The Northeast Monsoon (Amihan) is affecting Northern Luzon, according to PAGASA’s 24-hour weather forecast issued on Saturday afternoon.

Amihan will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, and the rest of Cagayan Valley, while cloudy skies with rains will be experienced over Batanes and Babuyan Islands.

Cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms will prevail over Cagayan, Isabela, and Caraga due to the combined effects of the shear line and the easterlies.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country may experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms because of the combined effects of the easterlies and localized thunderstorms.

Flash floods and landslides may occur as a result of these weather conditions.

Meanwhile, Northern Luzon will have moderate to strong winds with moderate to rough coastal waters, while the rest of the country will experience light to moderate winds with slight to moderate coastal waters.

The sun will rise over Metro Manila at 6:06 a.m. on Sunday. —Jiselle Anne Casucian/VBL, GMA Integrated News
