The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) has issued the latest weather forecast for Mindanao, effective from 5:00 AM today until 5:00 AM tomorrow.
Regional Overview
The Caraga and Davao regions are expected to experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Residents should remain alert for possible flash floods or landslides, especially in areas prone to moderate to heavy rains. Elsewhere in Mindanao, partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms are anticipated, also influenced by the ITCZ. Winds will be light to moderate from the east to northeast, with seas ranging from slight to moderate (0.6 to 2.5 meters).
