(Residents in these areas should be on alert for possible floods and landslides caused by widespread rains.) In Luzon, Cagayan Valley, the Cordilleras Aurora, Quezon, and Bicol Region will have cloudy skies with rains due to the amihan.Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon, meanwhile, will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with light rains due to the northeast monsoon. <div>— TeleRadyo, 26 December 2022</div>
