MANILA — The northeast monsoon, locally known as the amihan, combined with easterly wind patterns will maintain rainy and overcast conditions across several areas of the Philippines on Friday, according to the state weather bureau's latest bulletin.
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration, or Pagasa, issued its advisory in the early morning hours, noting that the weather system will continue its influence over the island nation through the forecast period.
Residents in affected regions should remain prepared for moisture-laden conditions, with cloud formations expected to dominate the skies. The combination of the amihan and easterlies has been a recurring weather pattern during the cooler months in the Philippines.
Commuters and outdoor workers are advised to monitor updates from Pagasa as conditions may vary by locality. The weather bureau continues to issue regular forecasts to keep the public informed of any significant changes to the current weather patterns.
