“MARING” will continue to enhance the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) that will bring moderate to heavy rainshowers and thunderstorms over Luzon particularly over the Western section.

Fishermen specially those using small seacrafts are advised not to venture out over the seaboards of Luzon due to the possible big waves generated by the enhanced Southwest Monsoon.
