The "danger" high heat index will still be experienced in many parts of the country, PAGASA weather forecaster 5 Anna Clauren said in a radio interview.
"We are still in the peak of the dry season and it is possible that temperatures will further increase especially during the second half of May," Clauren said.
The easterlies or hot temperatures from the Pacific Ocean are currently affecting the country, she noted.
"For the next four to five days, we should expect that the current temperatures will be maintained in Metro Manila and many parts of the country.
We expect a high heat index or danger level. We advise the public to take extra precaution and, if necessary, avoid extreme activities, especially at noon," she added.
Mindanao can expect rains brought by the intertropical convergence zone, Clauren said.
At least 32 areas could experience a danger heat index (between 42 and 51 degrees Celsius) today: Aparri, Cagayan; Dagupan City; Coron and Aborlan, Palawan; Virac, Catanduanes; San Jose, Occidental Mindoro; Roxas City, Capiz; Laoag City and Batac, Ilocos Norte; Bacnotan, La Union; Echague, Isabela; Sangley Point, Cavite; Puerto Princesa, Palawan; Iloilo City and Dumangas, Iloilo; and Guiuan, Eastern Samar.
