From this cloud coverage we can see Stratocumulus clouds overcasting the sky of
Malate, Manila, Philippines. Probability of precipitation is low, most likely to be
experience early in the morning, with isolated rain showers and low chance of
thunderstorm. Humidity is at average 78%.

As per the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration (PAGASA) weather update in the country. The Low-Pressure Area,
shearline and northeast monsoon will affect the country’s weather condition.

Luzon. Northeast Monsoon will be affecting the rest of Luzon. Amihan will also bring
partly cloudy to at times cloudy skies with light rains over Metro Manila, and the rest of
Central Luzon.

For tomorrow, we are expecting good weather.

January 23, 2023, 10:00-10:30 Philippine time. Sunny Monday starts off the week.
Good morning this is Pos C from United Marine Weather Central. Sunny to Partially
cloudy sky is to be experienced this Monday January 23, 2023.
Early morning coverage shows cirrus clouds over the skies of Malate, Manila,
Philippines, from this we expect good weather. Probability of precipitation is zero, thus
Monday will have a sunny weather. Humidity starts off from 71% and dropping.
This 15ooH cloud coverage shows cumulus clouds over partly covering the skies, from
this we expect a continuous good weather for the rest of the day. Temperature is at
average 30 degree Celsius. And Humidity at average 63% and increasing but still
averaging at 71%.
As per the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration (PAGASA) weather update in the country. The monsoon will bring partly
cloudy to cloudy skies with possibility of light rains over Metro Manila and the rest of
Luzon. The localized thunderstorms will bring similar weather condition over the
remaining parts of the country.
For tomorrow, we are expecting good weather but with probability of light rain showers.

January 24, 2023, 10:00-10:30 Philippine time. Good Weather Tuesday.

Good morning this is Pos C from United Marine Weather Central. Partly cloudy to
cloudy skies with light rain is to be experienced this Tuesday January 24, 2023.
Early morning coverage shows stratocumulus clouds over the skies of Malate, Manila,
Philippines, from this we expect good weather. Probability of precipitation is zero.
Humidity starts off from 74% and dropping.
This 15ooH cloud coverage shows cirrus clouds over the skies, from this we expect a
continuous good weather for the rest of the day. Temperature is between 25 to 30
degrees Celsius. And Humidity at average 71%.
As per the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration (PAGASA) weather update in the country. The Northeast Monsoon will
also affect Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon. However, the effects on these areas will
be less threatening. That’s because residents can expect “partly cloudy skies wit light
rains, which brings “no significant impact” on land areas.
For tomorrow, we are expecting good weather with cloudy to partly cloudy skies. As we
made our way through the day this will eventually be lifted and cleared, cloud thinned,
and broke to allow some brighter weather in the afternoon.
January 25, 2023, 10:00-10:30 Philippine time. Calm Wednesday morning to you
Good morning this is Pos C from United Marine Weather Central. A fair to pleasant
weather is to be experienced this Wednesday January 25, 2023.
Early morning coverage shows cirrus clouds followed by cumulus clouds over the skies
of Malate, Manila, Philippines, from this we expect good weather. The movement of
cirrus clouds can tell from which direction weather is approaching. The probability of
precipitation for today is zero but there will be a possibility of weather change within 24
hours.Temperature is at 25 degree celsius. And Humidity at an average of 72% and
decreasing.
Our afternoon cloud coverage shows stratocumulus clouds partly covering the skies.
This indicates a change in the weather or a warm, cold or occluded front incoming.
Temperature is at 26 degree celsius. And Humidity at an average of 60% and increasing
As per the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration (PAGASA) weather update in the country. At 3:00 PM today, the Low
Pressure Area (LPA) was estimated based on all available data at 380 km East
Southeast of Davao City (5.2°N, 128.5°E). Northeast Monsoon affecting Luzon and
Visayas. Northeast Monsoon affecting Luzon. This will bring partly cloudy to cloudy
skies with light rains all over Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon.
For tomorrow, we are expecting a change in weather with a probability of light rain
showers in Metro Manila. Don’t forget to bring umbrella tomorrow.

expected for the hours.Temperature is at 24 degree celsius. And Humidity at an average
of 80% and decreasing.
Our afternoon cloud coverage shows Stratucumulus clouds partly covering the skies.
This indicates a change in the weather or a warm, cold or occluded front incoming.
Temperature is at 30 degree celsius. And Humidity at an average of 59% and increasing
As per the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services
Administration (PAGASA) weather update in the country. Northeast Monsoon affecting

TRIIVIA
ASPERITAS CLOUDS.
Look! Up in the sky!
A roiling, stormy sea up in the sky? How? Well, It's a new kind of cloud.
This is a unique and breathtaking meteorological phenomenon and it's officially
recognized as asperitas cloud.
This is how the new edition of the International Cloud Atlas describes it, in almost poetic
form:
"Asperitas is characterized by localized waves in the cloud base, either smooth or
dappled with smaller features, sometimes descending into sharp points, as if viewing a
roughened sea surface from below."
What's in a name?
Asperitas comes from the Latin word for roughness.
In 2006, the Cloud Appreciation Society, a group of weather enthusiasts based in the
UK, received the first images of the distinctive cloud from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. A few
years later, they proposed the cloud be included in the atlas. That would be a huge coup
since the atlas is widely used to train meteorologists from the time it was first published
in the late 19th century.

Red Sprites, Blue Jets and Elves

In addition to their well known effects in the troposphere, large thunderstorms produce
several kinds of lesser known effects on the middle and upper atmosphere.
Red sprites, blue jets and elves are upper atmospheric optical phenomena associated
with thunderstorms that have only recently been documented by using low light level
television technology. These phenomena are collectively called Transient Luminous
Events (TLE's).
Red sprites are large but weak luminous flashes that appear directly above an active
thunderstorm system and are coincident with powerful positive cloud-to-ground lightning
strokes. Their spatial structures range from small single or multiple vertically elongated
spots, to bright groupings which extend from above the cloud tops to altitudes up to
almost 60 miles (about 95 km. Sprites are predominantly red and they usually last no
more than a few milliseconds.
Blue jets are a second high altitude optical phenomenon, distinct from sprites and first
documented in 1994 (although pilots had earlier reported similar sightings). Blue jets are
optical ejections from the top of the electrically active core regions of thunderstorms, but
not directly associated with cloud-to-ground lightning. Following their emergence from
the top of the thundercloud, they typically propagate upward in narrow cones of about
15 degrees, fanning out and disappearing at heights of about 25-30 miles (40-50 km)
with a lifetime of a couple of tenths of a second.
Elves are rapidly expanding (up to 300 miles across) disk-shaped regions of luminosity,
lasting less than a thousandth of a second, which occur high above energetic
cloud-to-ground lightning of positive or negative polarity. Elves most likely result when
an energetic electromagnetic pulse (EMP) propagates into the ionosphere. Though they
can be accompanied by sprites, the causative mechanism is of an entirely different
nature.
