On Friday (December 13, 2024), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration released the latest weather update in the country. Three weather systems will affect the country’s weather condition.

Amihan will bring cloudy skies with light rains over Cagayan Valley, Apayao, Kalinga, Mountain Province, and Ifugao.
The northeast monsoon will bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains over the Ilocos Region, Central Luzon, and the rest of the Cordillera Administrative Region.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country will experience the same weather conditions due to the easterlies. Possible flash floods or landslides are expected during severe thunderstorms.
“For the rest of Palawan, Visayas, pati na rin sa Mindanao area, the weather will be good. So it would be warm, especially around noon, and there’s a possibility of isolated thunderstorms by afternoon and evening,” she added.
Meanwhile, the coastal water condition over Northern Luzon will be moderate to rough. The remaining parts of the country will have slight to moderate surrounding sea conditions, according to PAGASA.
