MANILA, Philippines — It will be a wet Tuesday as three weather systems bring rains to most parts of the country.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration also warned of possible flashfloods and landslides.

The trough end of a low pressure area last tracked 450 kilometers east of Surigao City early Tuesday morning is forecast to bring cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms to Mindanao, mos of the Visayas and the Mimaropa region.

Widespread rains and thunderstorms, on the other hand, are forecast for the Bicol and Eastern Visayas regions, and Quezon province, due to the cold front.

The same system will bring cloudy skies with scattered rains and isolated thunderstorms to Cavite, Laguna, Batangas and Rizal provinces.

The northeast monsoon, or “amihan,” meanwhile will bring cloudy skies with scattered or isolated rains but will otherwise have no significant impact on Metro Manila, Cagayan Valley, Cordillera, Ilocos and the rest of Central Luzon, and Aurora province.

Coastal waters throughout the country are forecast to be moderate to rough.
