With the ongoing southwest monsoon, also known as 'habagat,' residents can expect continuous rain, particularly in Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, and the Mindoro provinces. Metro Manila will experience occasional showers.

Additionally, areas including Ilocos Sur, La Union, and parts of the Cordillera region are likely to face cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms. The rest of the Visayas will see partly cloudy conditions interspersed with isolated rain showers.

Localized thunderstorms are also predicted in Mindanao, contributing to varying weather conditions across the archipelago.
