The northeast monsoon, locally known as amihan, is affecting Northern and Central Luzon, bringing isolated light rains in the regions of Ilocos, Cordillera, Cagayan Valley and Central Luzon. Meanwhile, Metro Manila and the rest of the country can count on good weather apart from isolated thunderstorms during the latter part of the day.

According to PAGASA Weather Forecaster Glaiza Escullar, the presence of amihan will fend off haze in the Luzon area. Haze are pollutants suspended in the air, which can be hazardous to health.
