The Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) will also bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms over the rest of Luzon and partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms over the rest of the country.
Flash floods or landslides may occur.
Strong winds and moderate to rough coastal waters are expected in the northern and western sections of Luzon, as well as moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough coastal waters for the rest of the Philippines.
