Shear line to bring rain to parts of Visayas, Mindanao


The shear line or the tail end of a frontal system will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over Eastern Visayas, Caraga, and Davao Oriental, PAGASA said Sunday.

In its 24-hour forecast, the weather agency advised affected residents to prepare for possible flash floods or landslides during moderate to, at times, heavy rains.

Cagayan Valley, Cordillera Administrative Region, Aurora, and the northern portion of Quezon including Polillo Islands will have cloudy skies with light rains due to the northeast monsoon.

The Northeast Monsoon will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over Metro Manila, the rest of Luzon, and Western Visayas.

Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers, meanwhile, will prevail over the rest of the country due to localized thunderstorms.

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

Further, moderate to strong wind and moderate to rough coastal water conditions will be experienced over Luzon, Visayas, and the eastern section of Mindanao, while the rest of Mindanao will have light to moderate winds and slight to moderate waters. — Ma. Angelica Garcia/BM, GMA News
