MANILAluckywin, Philippines — Most parts of the country will experience rains on Friday due to the shear line and intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.

In Pagasa’s 5 p.m. update on Thursday, weather forecaster Chenel Dominguez said clouds are covering the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) and noted that no low pressure area was being monitored inside or outside it.

“Magkakaroon po tayo ng surge ng northeast monsoon, at malaking bahagi ng Luzon ang makakaranas nito. Asahan pong makakaranas ng malamig na madaling araw, pero pagdating ng tanghali hanggang hapon ay asahan ang mainit at maalinsangan na panahon,” Dominguez said.

She added that the eastern section of northern Luzon, particularly Cagayan and Isabela, will experience overcast weather and light rains.

Furthermore, cloudy skies and scattered rains due to the shear line are expected over Luzon’s eastern section, particularly in the Bicol Region and Quezon. A shear line occurs when the northeast monsoon or “amihan” converges with easterlies or the warm winds coming from the Pacific Ocean, according to Pagasa.
