“Sa nalalabing bahagi ng Luzon, kasama ang Metro Manila, generally fair ang panahon, sisilip ang araw, pero may tiyansa ng pulo-pulong pagulan o pamumuo ng thunderstorms bandang hapon o gabi,” he added.

(For the rest of Luzon, including Metro Manila, generally fair weather, the sun will come out, but there is still a chance that scattered rain or thunderstorms formation will occur by the afternoon or evening remains.)

In the Visayas, Figuracion said overcast skies, widespread rain, thunder and lightning are possible due to the effects of the ITCZ, which will also affect weather conditions in northern Mindanao, particularly the Caraga Administrative Region.

The rest of Mindanao, according to Pagasa, will be like the rest of Luzon



generally fair weather but with chances of thunderstorms by the afternoon and evening.
