Recent PAGASA forecasts for Manila on August 7 project daytime highs of 30–31°C amid 80% rain chances from the southwest monsoon, with lingering moisture from early-month Tropical Cyclone Luis keeping skies cloudy. These conditions limit peak solar heating and favor the market's tight clustering around 28–29°C, as high humidity and frequent showers moderate surface temperatures below seasonal averages near 31°C. Model consensus points to modest variability depending on exact rainfall timing and cloud cover thickness, with traders weighting the balance between brief clear spells allowing brief warming and persistent monsoon flow capping extremes. Official observations from the agency will determine the recorded daily maximum.
