Most of the country will continue to experience hot weather in the morning and isolated rain showers or thunderstorms in the afternoon or evening, said the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) on Wednesday, May 10.
PAGASA said the easterlies, or warm air from the Pacific Ocean, and localized thunderstorms will be the dominant weather systems in the country in the next 24 hours.
The public is advised to exercise caution during severe thunderstorms, as these can result in landslides or flash floods, especially in areas that are vulnerable to these hazards.
PAGASA said that severe thunderstorms are frequently accompanied by sudden heavy rains, lightning, thunder, gusts of wind, and occasionally hail.
Meanwhile, no gale warning is currently raised over any of the country’s seaboards, as the coastal waters will be light to moderate throughout the archipelago.
PAGASA said small boats and other sea vessels are safe to sail.
