ITCZ, easterlies, Amihan to bring rains across PH on Sunday

The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), easterlies, and the Northeast Monsoon (Amihan) are expected to bring cloudy skies and scattered rains across various parts of the Philippines on Sunday.

Mindanao and Palawan will experience cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the ITCZ, with a possibility of flash floods or landslides from moderate to heavy rainfall.

The easterlies will cause cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms in Visayas, Catanduanes, Albay, Sorsogon, and Masbate, also posing risks of flash floods or landslides.

Metro Manila and other parts of Northern and Central Luzon may have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains from the Amihan.

The rest of Luzon will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the easterlies, with severe thunderstorms potentially causing flash floods or landslides.

The northeast monsoon is forecast to weaken in the coming days, signaling the start of the warm and dry season.
