Weather Today – February 20, 2018

Warm and humid winds coming from the Pacific Ocean or Easterlies will continue to affect the eastern section of the country. Because heat and moisture are factors in cloud formation, it will also bring rains in several parts of the archipelago.

In the next hours, Eastern Visayas will experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms. Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms, mostly in the afternoon or evening.

No gale warning was issued today due to the weak Northeast Monsoon or Hanging Amihan. But according to PAGASA Weather Forecaster Meno Mendoza, it is expected to be in effect again this Thursday or Friday.

No weather disturbance or Tropical Cyclone is expected to enter Philippine premises in the next 2 to 3 days, but the public is still advised to keep monitoring updates from the weather bureau.

Meanwhile, PAGASA released the top 3 places that has recorded the highest temperatures yesterday due to the prevailing Easterlies.
