Amihan, shear line to bring cloudy skies with rain over parts of eastern PH

The Northeast Monsoon (Amihan) and the easterlies will continue to affect the eastern parts of the country with cloudy and rainy weather in the next 24 hours, PAGASA said Monday afternoon.

In its latest weather forecast, the state weather bureau said cloudy skies with scattered rains and isolated thunderstorms will persist over Northern Samar and Eastern Samar due to the shear line.

Meanwhile, Cagayan Valley, Aurora, and Quezon will see cloudy skies with rains due to the Amihan.

Surigao del Norte, Surigao del Sur, Dinagat Islands, and Davao Oriental will experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the easterlies.

These moderate to at times heavy rains may cause flash floods or landslides.

The Amihan will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon, with no significant weather impact expected.

Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms will be observed throughout the rest of the country due to the easterlies.

These conditions may result in severe thunderstorms that could trigger flash floods or landslides.

State meteorologists also said winds will be moderate to strong while coastal waters will be moderate to rough over Northern and Central Luzon.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country will experience light to moderate wind conditions and slight to moderate coastal water conditions.

Sunrise in Metro Manila will be at 6:25 a.m. on Tuesday. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/RF, GMA Integrated News
