Southern Mindanao to have scattered rain showers due to LPA trough

The trough or extension of a low pressure area (LPA) is affecting southern Mindanao on Monday and will bring scattered rain showers, PAGASA said in its forecast.

Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi will have cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the said trough of the LPA.

Moderate to at times heavy rains may possibly result in flash floods or landslides.

PAGASA said the ridge of a high pressure on the other hand is extending over the eastern section of Northern Luzon.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country meanwhile may expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms. During severe thunderstorms, flash floods or landslides may occur.

Coastal waters will be slight to moderate throughout the country.
