Pagasa said that the LPA will result in rains in Aurora, Quezon, and the whole Bicol region. Meanwhile, the habagat will bring high chances of thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening due to habagat.

“We will experience moderate to heavy rains in Metro Manila, and the rest of Central Luzon and Calabarzon [Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon], even in Mimaropa [Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, and Palawan] due to habagat,” weather specialist Grace Castañeda said in Filipino in the agency’s 5 a.m. weather forecast.

For the rest of Northern Luzon, localized thunderstorms will bring chances of isolated thunderstorms.
