MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said yesterday that the dry season is expected to start this week. PAGASA weather specialist Grace Castañeda noted that the country will continue to see cloudy skies with some isolated rains from time to time. The weather bureau may also announce the end of the northeast monsoon, or amihan season. “We are expecting that this type of weather will continue in the next few days and within this week we can officially terminate the amihan season and will coincide with the declaration of warm and dry season,” she said. PAGASA is currently not monitoring any low-pressure area subject for tropical cyclone formation.
