Amihan's Chilly Influence to Fade by Midweek, Ushering in Warmer Days
The state weather bureau has announced that the cold temperatures caused by the Northeast Monsoon, locally known as Amihan, are projected to persist only until Wednesday across the nation. According to weather specialist Chenel Domingue, the Amihan is gradually weakening and currently impacts just Luzon and Visayas regions.
Transition to Warmer Conditions Expected
By Thursday, a shift towards hotter and more humid weather is anticipated to return to the Philippines, marking the end of the recent cool spell. This change signals the gradual transition into warmer seasonal patterns as the monsoon weakens.
Rainfall Forecast for Affected Areas
In its Monday forecast, the weather bureau indicated that the Amihan will continue to bring rainfall to several areas over the next 24 hours. Affected regions include:
- Batanes
- Cagayan
- Isabela
- Apayao
- Aurora
- Quezon
- Metro Manila
- Western Visayas
- Other parts of Luzon
Residents in these areas should prepare for potential showers as the monsoon system slowly dissipates.
