MANILA – The country will experience rains due to the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) and the easterlies, the weather bureau said Friday.

Scattered rains and thunderstorms will be experienced over the Bicol Region, Zamboanga Peninsula, and the Visayas due to the ITCZ. 

The easterlies will cause isolated rain showers and thunderstorms over the Ilocos Region, Cordillera Administrative Region, Cagayan Valley, and Central Luzon.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the rest of the country would also experience isolated rain showers and thunderstorms due to the ITCZ.

Meanwhile, moderate to strong winds and moderate to rough seas will prevail over the northern and western sections of Northern and Central Luzon.

Mariners of small seacrafts, including all types of motorized bancas, are advised not to venture out to the sea under these conditions, PAGASA said.

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