Rainy weather and thunderstorms are expected to continue over parts of Palawan, the Visayas, and Mindanao on Monday due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), according to the Philippine state weather bureau, PAGASA. Forecasts mention cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms, with different areas experiencing varying intensity.
The reports consistently describe the ITCZ as a zone where winds from the northern and southern hemispheres meet, contributing to unstable atmospheric conditions. One outlet emphasizes that rainy weather and thunderstorms are expected across these regions, while another focuses on the specific expected conditions—ranging from showers and thunderstorms in some areas to partly cloudy to cloudy skies in other parts of Mindanao. A third source summarizes the outlook more broadly, noting scattered rains and thunderstorms over the Visayas, Palawan, and parts of Mindanao.
