MANILA, Philippines — Two weather systems are expected to bring rain across the country on Sunday, January 26, state weather bureau PAGASA said. 

In its weather forecast, PAGASA said the northeast monsoon, locally known as amihan, may bring rains to some parts of Luzon, while cloudy skies and scattered rains are expected in other areas of the country.

Caraga, Zamboanga Peninsula, BARMM, Southern Leyte and Eastern Samar may anticipate cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms due to the easterlies. 

The state weather bureau warned residents in these areas of possible flash floods or landslides due to moderate to heavy rains.

Partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms are expected in the rest of the country due to the same weather system.

Meanwhile, Batanes can expect cloudy skies with light rains due to the amihan.

The amihan may also bring partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains to Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon.
