Quezon City, 02 June 2025


Based on the latest weather analysis and rainfall data from selected DOST-PAGASA stations, scattered to widespread rainfall has been observed in the past five days due to the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat). This signifies the onset of the rainy season across the western sections of Luzon and Visayas.

However, there may still be breaks in the rainfall that extend over a few days or weeks, referred to as monsoon breaks.

PAGASA will continue to monitor the weather and climate situation in the country. The public and all concerned agencies are advised to take precautionary measures against the adverse impacts of the rainy season, Habagat, and other climate and weather events.
