MANILA — The Philippines could get a break from storms in the last days of November, PAGASA said Monday following a series of destructive cyclones earlier this month. 

“In terms of bagyo, wala pa tayong nakikita in the next three to five days,” PAGASA weather forecaster Lorie Dela Cruz told TeleRadyo Serbisyo. 

However, Mindanao on Monday may experience moderate to at times heavy rains due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone or band of clouds, the weather agency said. 

It said the northeast monsoon would bring cloudy skies with rains over Batanes, Cagayan, and Apayao. 

Metro Manila and the rest of the country may experience localized thunderstorms. 

This month, typhoons Nika, Ofel, and Pepito reportedly killed 14 people and left around P3.5 billion in damage to infrastructure and agriculture, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council said.
