MANILA, Philippines — Fair weather is seen in most parts of the country on Monday, according to the state weather bureau.
However, the southwest monsoon, or habagat, will bring overcast skies with rain showers in parts of Northern Luzon, said Obet Badrina, weather specialist of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
“Southwest monsoon pa din ang nakaka-apekto sa malaking bahagi ng Luzon na magdadala ng pag-ulan lalung lalo na sa may Ilocos Region, Cordillera [Administrative Region], gayundin sa may bahagi ng Cagayan Valley region,” Badrina said in a public weather forecast.
(Southwest monsoon still affects most parts of Luzon, bringing rains, especially in the Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, and Cagayan Valley region.)
“Sa nalalabing bahagi ng ating bansa, dito sa Kamaynilaan, inaasahan natin ang maulap na panahon, habang sa Visayas, Mindanao at Palawan, inaasahan nating generally fair weather po tayo ngayon,” he added.

“Hindi natin inaalis ang posibilidad na ito ay maging isang bagyo,” Badrina said.
(We don’t rule out the possibility of it becoming a tropical cyclone.)
“Sa ngayon naman ay maliit ang tyansa nito na tumama sa kalupaan,” he added.
(But for now, it has a low chance of making a landfall.)
Meanwhile, Pagasa did not raise a gale warning in any seaboards nationwide.
