MANILA – Some areas in Luzon will experience rain showers due to the shear line and the northeasterly surface windflow, the weather bureau reported Thursday.

Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms will prevail over the provinces of Quezon, Rizal, Laguna and Camarines Norte due to the shear line.

The northeasterly surface windflow will cause rains over Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Apayao, Kalinga and Aurora.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said moderate to heavy rains in those areas may result in flash floods and landslides.

"The rest of the country will experience isolated rains due to localized thunderstorms," said PAGASA forecaster Patrick del Mundo.

He added that no gale warning was issued on any part of the country.

Moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas will prevail over Northern and Central Luzon.

Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate with slight to moderate seas. (PNA)
