The southwest monsoon, locally called “habagat,” may continue to bring rains over parts of Luzon, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Tuesday, June 13.
In the next 24 hours, occasional heavy to intense monsoon rains may prevail over Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, Pangasinan, Batanes, and Babuyan Islands.
Bataan, Zambales, Tarlac, Pampanga, Bulacan, and Cordillera Administrative Region may also experience scattered light to heavy rains and thunderstorms.
“Under these conditions, flooding and rain-induced landslides are possible, especially in areas that are highly or very highly susceptible to these hazards,” PAGASA warned.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country may have isolated rain showers or thunderstorms.
PAGASA advised the public to exercise caution during severe thunderstorms, as these may trigger landslides or flash floods, especially in areas that are vulnerable to these hazards.
