The Philippines can expect varying weather conditions across different regions today, May 28, 2026, according to the latest forecast from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). Southwesterly windflow and a tropical storm trough are influencing weather patterns, particularly in Visayas and Mindanao.
Regional Weather Forecast
Luzon
For most of Luzon, including Metro Manila, PAGASA forecasts partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers. These rainshowers are likely due to localized thunderstorms. Residents are advised to be prepared for possible flash floods or landslides during these isolated thunderstorms. Expect light to moderate winds from variable directions.
Visayas
The western sections of Visayas are experiencing the effects of the southwesterly windflow, bringing cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms. Residents in Negros and nearby areas should be vigilant for potential flash floods or landslides. The eastern sections of Visayas are expected to have light to moderate winds from the east.
Mindanao
Mindanao is experiencing a mix of weather conditions. The trough of a tropical storm outside PAR is affecting the eastern section of Mindanao, bringing cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms. Possible flash floods or landslides are a concern in these areas. Zamboanga Peninsula, BARMM, and SOCCSKSARGEN will experience cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms due to the southwesterly windflow. The rest of Mindanao will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rainshowers due to localized thunderstorms.
