Weather Today – January 19, 2018

Easterlies will continue to affect the country, particularly the eastern section. Despite their warm and humid characteristics, these winds coming from the Pacific Ocean can also bring rains in several parts of the archipelago.

In the next hours, the regions of Cagayan Valley, Bicol, Eastern and Central Visayas, Caraga, Northern Mindanao, Davao and the provinces of Aurora and Quezon will experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms. Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, mostly in the afternoon or evening.

Compared to the previous days, the effect of Northeast Monsoon or Hanging Amihan has weakened. No gale warning was issued today but coastal waters in the northern and eastern sections of Luzon and the eastern section of Visayas and Mindanao will be moderate to occasionally rough. Elsewhere, slight to moderate sea conditions will prevail.

In an interview with Panahon TV, PAGASA weather forecaster Meno Mendoza said that the country will be storm-free this weekend. No weather disturbance or Tropical Cyclone is expected to enter the Philippine premises in the next 2 to 3 days but the public is still advised to keep monitoring updates from the weather bureau.
