Meanwhile, the Northeast Monsoon or Amihan will bring cloudy skies with light rains over the Ilocos Region, Batanes, Babuyan Islands and the rest of the Cordillera Administrative Region and Central Luzon.

Moreover, Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.

Flash floods or landslides are also possible during severe thunderstorms, PAGASA said.
