Isolated rain showers continue across Philippines

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said most parts of the country will experience isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.

The southwest monsoon will cause scattered rains and thunderstorms across Ilocos Region, Batanes, Babuyan Islands, and Zambales. Moderate to heavy rains in those areas could result in flash floods or landslides. Metro Manila and the rest of the country will get isolated rain showers or thunderstorms. PAGASA forecast moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas throughout northern Luzon. As of 2 a.m., no low pressure area is monitored for possible tropical cyclone formation.
