MANILA, Philippines - Fair weather will prevail all over the country with partly cloudy to cloudy skies and isolated light rains due to the northeast monsoon affecting Luzon and Visayas, the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said on Monday.
The weather bureau said moderate to strong winds blowing from the northeast will prevail over Luzon and Visayas and coming from the northeast to north over Mindanao.
The temperature for Metro Manila will be around 17 to 29 degrees Celsius while Baguio will experience temperature from 9 to 19 degree Celsius.
PAGASA weather forecaster Fernando Cada said the northeast monsoon will continue to bring cold weather with isolated light rains in most parts of the country. A low pressure area is also expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility on Wednesday but it has a small chance to turn into a tropical cyclone.
PAGASA said coastal waters throughout the archipelago will be moderate to rough, and gale-force winds associated with the northeast monsoon will affect the northern seaboard of Northern Luzon and the eastern seaboards of Southern Luzon, Visayas and of Mindanao.
"Fishing boats and other small seacrafts are advised not to venture out into the sea while larger sea vessels are alerted against big waves," the weather bureau said.
