Several areas across Mindanao are expected to experience cloudy skies, rainshowers, and thunderstorms on Tuesday, November 10, as the Easterlies continue to influence weather conditions over the region, prompting the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) to warn residents of possible flash floods and landslides.
In its regional weather forecast issued at 5 a.m. on November 10, PAGASA’s Mindanao Regional Services Division (MINPRSD) said Caraga, the Davao Region, Misamis Oriental, and Camiguin would experience cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms throughout the forecast period, which runs until 5 a.m. on Wednesday, November 11.
The weather bureau cautioned that moderate to occasionally heavy rainfall in these areas could trigger flash floods and landslides, particularly in communities situated near rivers, waterways, steep slopes, and other flood- or landslide-prone locations.
The rest of Mindanao, meanwhile, is expected to experience partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms, also due to the Easterlies. Although rainfall may be less widespread in these areas, PAGASA warned that severe thunderstorms could still bring localized flooding and landslides.
Davao Region, Caraga face widespread rainy conditions
All provinces in the Davao Region are forecast to experience cloudy skies with rainshowers and thunderstorms during both daytime and nighttime.
Metro Davao, Davao del Norte, and Davao del Sur are expected to record temperatures ranging from 23 to 33 degrees Celsius, while Davao Oriental may experience temperatures between 22 and 32 degrees Celsius.
Davao de Oro is forecast to have temperatures of 22 to 30 degrees Celsius, while Davao Occidental could experience temperatures ranging from 25 to 33 degrees Celsius during the day, slightly decreasing overnight.
Similar weather conditions are expected across Caraga, where Agusan del Norte, Agusan del Sur, Surigao del Norte, Surigao del Sur, and the Dinagat Islands are all forecast to experience cloudy skies with rainshowers and thunderstorms.
Surigao del Norte is expected to have temperatures ranging from 24 to 30 degrees Celsius during the day, dropping to 23 to 29 degrees Celsius overnight. Meanwhile, temperatures in the Dinagat Islands are forecast to range from 23 to 30 degrees Celsius throughout the forecast period.
Agusan del Norte may experience temperatures of 23 to 34 degrees Celsius, while Agusan del Sur is forecast to have temperatures between 22 and 33 degrees Celsius.
Northern Mindanao also faces rain and thunderstorms
In Northern Mindanao, Camiguin and Misamis Oriental are expected to experience cloudy skies with rainshowers and thunderstorms during the day and evening.
Camiguin’s temperature is forecast to range from 25 to 34 degrees Celsius, while Misamis Oriental may experience temperatures between 23 and 32 degrees Celsius during daytime.
Bukidnon, Lanao del Norte, and Misamis Occidental, on the other hand, are expected to have partly cloudy to at times cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.
Temperatures in Bukidnon could range from 18 to 34 degrees Celsius, making it among the cooler areas in the regional forecast, while Lanao del Norte is expected to record 23 to 31 degrees Celsius and Misamis Occidental 23 to 32 degrees Celsius.
SOCCSKSARGEN, Zamboanga Peninsula may experience isolated thunderstorms
In SOCCSKSARGEN, North Cotabato, South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, and Sarangani are forecast to experience partly cloudy to at times cloudy skies, with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.
Daytime temperatures are expected to reach 33 to 34 degrees Celsius in several areas before slightly decreasing overnight.
North Cotabato is forecast to have temperatures of 24 to 33 degrees Celsius, South Cotabato 25 to 34 degrees Celsius, Sultan Kudarat 24 to 34 degrees Celsius, and Sarangani 25 to 33 degrees Celsius.
Similar conditions are expected across the Zamboanga Peninsula, including Zamboanga City, Zamboanga del Norte, Zamboanga del Sur, and Zamboanga Sibugay, as well as Isabela City.
These areas may experience partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy skies with rainshowers or thunderstorms throughout the day and night. Temperatures are expected to range from 23 to 35 degrees Celsius, depending on the locality.
BARMM areas to experience partly cloudy skies and possible thunderstorms
Across the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), Cotabato City, Basilan, Lanao del Sur, Sulu, Tawi-Tawi, Maguindanao del Norte, and Maguindanao del Sur are expected to experience partly cloudy to at times cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers or thunderstorms.
Lanao del Sur is forecast to have relatively cooler temperatures ranging from 20 to 30 degrees Celsius, while Cotabato City and Maguindanao del Norte may experience temperatures reaching 34 degrees Celsius during the day.
Basilan and Sulu could record temperatures of 24 to 34 degrees Celsius and 26 to 34 degrees Celsius, respectively. Tawi-Tawi is expected to experience temperatures between 26 and 32 degrees Celsius.
Light to moderate winds, slight to moderate seas expected
PAGASA said light to moderate winds blowing from the east to northeast would prevail across Mindanao, with coastal waters expected to remain slight to moderate, with wave heights ranging from 0.6 to 2.1 meters.
Despite the generally manageable sea conditions indicated in the forecast, fishing communities, boat operators, and other sea travelers are advised to remain attentive to changing weather conditions, particularly during thunderstorms.
PAGASA urged residents, especially those living in flood-prone and landslide-susceptible communities, to remain vigilant as localized heavy rainfall could develop during thunderstorms.
Residents are also advised to monitor official weather bulletins and updates, avoid crossing flooded rivers and waterways, and take necessary precautions when severe weather develops.
The regional forecast was issued by PAGASA’s Mindanao Regional Services Division in El Salvador City, Misamis Oriental, and remains valid from 5 a.m. Tuesday, November 10, until 5 a.m. Wednesday, November 11, 2026.
