Cloudy skies with scattered rains showers and thunderstorms will be be experienced over Luzon, particularly in Metro Manila, Pangasinan, Central Luzon, CALABARZON, MIMAROPA, Bicol region, and Zamboanga Peninsula, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said.
Moderate to occasionally strong winds from the southwest to west will be experienced in the Visayas, Palawan, and Occidental Mindoro.
The eye of typhoon “Maymay” was last seen at 1,340 kilometers east-northeast of Basco, Batanes, with maximum sustained winds of 180 kilometers per hour (kph) and gustiness of 220 kph as of 4 a.m.
