At a press conference, PAGASA administrator Nathaniel Servando said that the termination of the northeast monsoon season signaled the start of relatively warmer or drier months, known as summer in the Philippines.

"Today, we officially declare the start of the Philippine summer based on the analysis of the latest forecast," Servando said, adding that the effect of the El Niño phenomenon is expected to continue.

“We expect higher temperatures and drier conditions during the months of April and May,” Servando said.

“Simple ways like drinking water and avoiding long exposure to sunlight can prevent diseases such as heat stroke,” he added.
