Rosal’s trough, said Pagasa, is expected to bring cloudy skies with scattered rain and thunderstorms in Quirino, Aurora, Quezon, Marinduque, Oriental Mindoro, Occidental Mindoro and Camarines Norte.
Rosa’s trough will also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain in Metro Manila as well and in the rest of the country.
Meanwhile, the effects of the “amihan” where light rain is expected, will be experienced in Ilocos Region, the Cordillera Administrative Region and the rest of Cagayan Valley.
