Cloudy skies with rain to greet Metro Manila, other areas for Christmas Eve
A shear line and the northeast monsoon are forecast to bring cloudy skies and rain to parts of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
On Christmas Eve, the shear line will cause cloudy skies and scattered thunderstorms in Eastern Visayas, Bicol Region, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Aklan, and Capiz.
Several areas affected by the shear line can anticipate heavy to intense rains on Christmas Eve, namely Camarines Sur, Albay, Sorsogon, and Catanduanes.
The northeast monsoon will bring cloudy skies and rain to Metro Manila, Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Aurora, Bulacan, and Nueva Ecija.
PAGASA warned of possible flash floods or landslides due to moderate to at times heavy rains in these areas.
The rainy weather in Metro Manila and other parts of Luzon will likely persist until Christmas Day.
Strong to gale-force gusts associated with the northeast monsoon may result in rough to very rough sea conditions along the coasts of Northern, Central, and Southern Luzon.
PAGASA urges residents and disaster management offices to take necessary precautions for safety and to protect property.
