PAGASA Says Frontal System & Southwesterly Windflow to Bring Rains Over Parts of PH
The state weather bureau reported that a frontal system and southwesterly windflow will bring rains over parts of the country.
On Wednesday (May 17, 2023), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. The frontal system and southwesterly windflow will affect the country’s weather condition.
PAGASA reported that Southwesterly Windflow will be affecting the western section of Luzon. Frontal System will be affecting Extreme Northern Luzon.
“Pag-iral ng southwesterly windflow— o ito ‘yung hangin na nagmumula dito sa may bahagi ng timog kanluran— ang siyang magdadala po ng maulap na kalangitan, partikular na nga sa western section ng Luzon,” weather specialist Obet Badrina said.
The frontal system will bring cloudy weather condition with rains over Batanes and Babuyan Islands.
The southwesterly windflow will bring cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms over Zambales and Bataan.
It will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms over the remaining parts of the country.
“Sa nalalabing bahagi ng ating bansa, lalo na sa Visayas at Mindanao, mainit na panahon ang mararanasan, pero posible pa rin ho yung mga isolated rain showers and thunderstorms,” he claimed.
The weather agency has warned the public for flash floods or landslides due to moderate to at times heavy rains and severe thunderstorms.
“Inaasahan nga ho natin [sa] third week of May hanggang second week of June normally po nagsisimula ang panahon ng tag-ulan. Pero sa ngayon ho, hindi pa po tayo nagsisimula sa pag-ulan. Patuloy pa rin na nagmomonitor ng mga estasyon natin sa western section ng Luzon para malaman natin kung magiging tuloy tuloy na itong mga tag-ulan na ito,” he added.
Meanwhile, the coastal water condition over the entire country will be slight to moderate, according to the weather bureau.
