Most parts of the country will continue to experience isolated rain showers caused by the easterlies, the weather bureau said Tuesday.
The frontal system affecting extreme Northern Luzon, however, will bring scattered rains and thunderstorms over Batanes, Cagayan, Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, Apayao, Abra, and Kalinga.
Moderate to heavy rains in those areas could result in flash floods or landslides, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said.
Metro Manila and the rest of the country will continue to experience isolated rain showers or thunderstorms.
Moderate winds and moderate seas will prevail over extreme Northern Luzon.
Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate with slight to moderate seas.
As of 2 a.m., no low pressure area was monitored for possible tropical cyclone formation.
