Meanwhile, the same weather condition will prevail over Mindanao due to the intertropical convergence zone.

PAGASA advised affected residents to prepare for possible flash floods or landslides due to scattered moderate to, at times, heavy rains.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country, on the other hand, will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms.

Flash floods or landslides are also possible due to severe thunderstorms.

The western section of Luzon will have moderate winds and moderate coastal water conditions, while the rest of the country will have light to moderate winds and slight to moderate waters. — Ma. Angelica Garcia/BM, GMA News
