CALABARZON — Light to moderate rains are affecting several areas in Quezon and Laguna provinces, while similar weather conditions are expected in parts of Rizal due to the Easterlies, according to a rainfall advisory issued by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) early Thursday, 12 November 2026.
In Rainfall Advisory No. 16 issued at 5 a.m., PAGASA's National Capital Region Regional Weather Forecasting Center identified several municipalities in Quezon experiencing rainfall, including Tagkawayan, Panukulan, Burdeos, Polillo, Patnanungan, Jomalig, Calauag, Mauban, Real, Sampaloc, Lucban, Tayabas, Pagbilao and Infanta.
