Amihan brings rain to Northern and Central Luzon, easterlies affect rest of the country

The northeast monsoon, locally known as amihan, continues to affect Northern and Central Luzon, bringing cloudy skies and rain showers to Cagayan, Isabela, and Aurora.

The Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, the rest of Cagayan Valley, and the rest of Central Luzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains due to the amihan.

The shear line, a weather system formed by the convergence of cold and warm winds, has dissolved due to the slight weakening of the amihan.

Warm winds from the Pacific Ocean, known as easterlies, are still affecting the country and are expected to bring scattered rain showers to the Bicol Region, Eastern Visayas, Dinagat Islands, Surigao del Norte, Quezon, Surigao del Sur, Metro Manila, and the rest of the country.

These weather conditions may trigger flash floods and landslides in affected areas.

Winds will be moderate to strong, and coastal waters will be moderate to rough in Northern Luzon, Central Luzon, and the eastern section of Southern Luzon.
