MANILA, Philippines — Most parts of the country will have rainy weather due to three weather systems, according to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
Pagasa said the northeast monsoon or amihan, shearline and intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), along with two cloud clusters due to the last two weather systems, will affect most areas nationwide on Sunday.

But she said they are not ruling out the possibility that an LPA could form over the western part of Palawan or Visayas.
Castañeda said if this bad weather forms, this LPA will not likely develop into a tropical cyclone.
