September 10, 2025 | Mindanao — The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) has warned residents across Mindanao to prepare for partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers and thunderstorms throughout Wednesday, September 10, due to the prevailing easterlies.
In its 5:00 a.m. regional weather bulletin, PAGASA said most provinces in Mindanao will experience warm and humid conditions during the day, but thunderstorms could develop in the afternoon or evening. These sudden downpours may bring flash floods and landslides, particularly in low-lying and mountainous areas.
Winds will be light to moderate, blowing from the southeast to east, while seas will generally be slight to moderate, ranging from 0.6 to 1.0 meters, making coastal waters relatively safe for fishing and other marine activities.
