Sweaters Out: Philippines to Experience Cooler Days in February, Says PAGASA

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) announced Saturday that the Philippines will be experiencing cooler days at the beginning of February. According to the government agency, this colder weather is due to the northeast monsoon (more commonly known as amihan) that is currently felt in the eastern part of Luzon. But in the coming days, the surge of amihan will affect other parts of the country, too.
