'Amihan' continues to bring rains over parts of Luzon, W. Visayas
Cloudy and rainy weather may persist in some parts of Luzon and Western Visayas in the next 24 hours due to the northeast monsoon or “amihan,” the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Tuesday, Feb. 28.
Scattered light to heavy rains may prevail over the Cagayan Valley, Bicol Region, Western Visayas, Aurora, Quezon, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, and Romblon.
PAGASA warned those in these areas to remain alert because of the threat of flooding or landslides caused by moderate to occasional heavy rains.
Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with light amihan rains may also affect the rest of Luzon, it said.
Meanwhile, the shear line, the boundary between cold air from the northeast monsoon and warm air from the easterlies, may bring cloudy skies with scattered light to occasional heavy rain showers and thunderstorms over the rest of Visayas.
PAGASA said Mindanao may experience partly cloudy to cloudy weather with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms.
The public is also warned against possible flooding or landslides during severe thunderstorms.
