Metro Manila, the rest of Luzon, the rest of Visayas, and Northern Mindanao will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains due to the Northeast Monsoon with no significant impact.

The rest of Mindanao will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to localized thunderstorms as flash floods or landslides may occur during severe thunderstorms.

The wind speed forecast for Northern Luzon and the eastern sections of Central Luzon, Southern Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao is strong to gale and moving Northeastward with rough to very rough coastal waters.

The rest of Luzon and Visayas will experience moderate to strong wind speed moving northeastward with moderate to rough coastal waters.
