It is expected that the influence of these storms will continue to enhance the Southwest Monsoon over the Philippines for at least the coming 48 hours. Click here to see all storm formations.
Otherwise the Philippines is currently generally under the influence of the "Habagat" / Southwest Monsoon (Summer Monsoon) so winds are frequently stronger and occasional local thunderstorms are likely. Because of the increased frequency of rain showers, air temperatures are generally a degree or two cooler.
