Winds from the Pacific Bring Rain
Easterlies, winds blowing from the Pacific Ocean, will bring rains to the eastern sections of Luzon and Visayas. Meanwhile, most other parts of the country are expected to enjoy generally fair weather this Monday, officials reported.
According to the latest forecast released early Monday, these easterly winds will continue to influence weather conditions, especially over the eastern seaboards. Local leaders noted that residents in affected areas should prepare for wet conditions throughout the day.
Weather Outlook Across the Philippines
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) stated in its 5 a.m. update that while eastern Luzon and Visayas will experience rain showers, the rest of the archipelago will remain relatively dry. Community members in regions outside the rain-affected zones can expect mostly sunny skies with occasional cloudiness.
Furthermore, the easterlies are not expected to cause severe weather but may bring moderate rainfall in coastal and mountainous areas. Officials advised fishermen and those in vulnerable zones to stay alert to changing conditions.
Impact on Daily Activities
With easterlies bringing rains to eastern Luzon and Visayas, daily routines might be disrupted by wet weather in these areas. Transportation services and outdoor activities could face delays or cancellations, community members said. On the other hand, the fair weather in the rest of the country allows for normal activities and travel.
Residents are encouraged to monitor local weather updates and heed any advisories issued by authorities to ensure safety amid changing weather patterns.
Looking Ahead
Forecasters predict that the easterlies will persist through the early part of the week, continuing to affect eastern Luzon and Visayas. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is expected to experience stable weather conditions, providing relief from rainfall.
Overall, the early week weather will be shaped by these easterly winds, bringing rain to specific regions while allowing others to remain dry and sunny.
