Weather systems to bring rain, clouds for Undas travelers Friday

MANILA — Travelers heading out for Undas 2026 should prepare for wet conditions on Friday, as the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) forecast partly cloudy skies and rain across key areas of the country.

According to Pagasa's early morning advisory, cloudy conditions with scattered rains and isolated thunderstorms are expected over Cagayan, Isabela, and Quirino provinces. The weather disturbances are being attributed to several active weather systems affecting the region during the peak travel period for All Saints' Day observances.

Devotees planning cemetery visits and family gatherings are advised to monitor weather updates and take precautions against heavy downpours. The state weather bureau typically issues updated forecasts throughout the day as conditions develop.

Undas, the Filipino tradition of honoring deceased loved ones, typically sees millions of Filipinos traveling to provincial cemeteries during the first few days of November. Weather conditions during this period can significantly impact road conditions and travel plans across the country.
