Amihan, ITCZ, localized thunderstorms

Based on PAGASA’s 4 p.m. weather forecast, Batanes will experience cloudy skies with light rains due to the Northeast Monsoon (Amihan).

The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) will bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms over Mindanao, Central Visayas, and Eastern Visayas.

Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms will persist over Metro Manila and the rest of the country due to localized thunderstorms.

PAGASA warned that these weather conditions may trigger flash floods and landslides.

State meteorologists also said winds would be moderate to strong, while coastal waters would be moderate to rough in extreme northern Luzon.

The rest of the county will experience light to moderate wind conditions and slight to moderate coastal water conditions.

Sunrise in Metro Manila will be at 5:57 a.m. on Friday. —VBL, GMA Integrated News
