MANILA - Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rains or thunderstorms will prevail over most parts of the country due to the low-pressure area (LPA) located 305 km. west of Puerto Princesa City, Palawan, the weather bureau said Friday.

In its 4 a.m. weather bulletin, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the trough of the LPA will bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms over Occidental Mindoro and the northern portion of Palawan.

Flash floods or landslides may occur in these areas due to moderate to at times heavy rains, PAGASA warned.

Meanwhile, Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Apayao, and Abra will experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with light rains due to the northeasterly surface windflow.

Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms due to the trough of the LPA and localized thunderstorms.

Moderate to strong winds will be felt over Northern Luzon, along with moderate to rough coastal waters, while the rest of the country will experience light to moderate winds with slight to moderate seas.

The temperature in Metro Manila will range from 24°C to 31°C; Baguio City, 17°C to 25°C; Laoag City, 25°C to 31°C; Legazpi City, 25°C to 32°C; Metro Cebu, 26°C to 32°C; Puerto Princesa City, 25°C to 31°C; and Metro Davao, 26°C to 34°C. (PNA)
