Luzon to see fair skies Sunday as southwest monsoon weakens

The Visayas and Mindanao, however, will likely see cloudy conditions and scattered rain showers.

The state weather bureau's early morning forecast indicates a weakening of the habagat, the seasonal wind pattern that typically brings moisture and rain across the archipelago. This shift will create a marked difference in weather conditions across the country's major island groups.
Residents in Luzon can expect predominantly clear to partly cloudy skies throughout Sunday, with minimal chance of precipitation. The easing of the southwest monsoon will allow for generally stable atmospheric conditions across the region.
In contrast, the Visayas and Mindanao will remain under the influence of lingering moisture associated with the weakening monsoon system. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are forecast for these areas, though conditions are not expected to be severe.
The weather bureau continues to monitor atmospheric developments and will issue updated forecasts as conditions evolve. Residents are advised to check official weather updates for the most current information regarding their respective areas.
