According to NDRRMC, 1,723 families or 7,801 persons have been displaced by “Luis” in Luzon.
Although the typhoon has left PAR, it continues to affect several areas as a result of enhanced monsoon rains, weather bureau PAGASA said.

In Metro Manila, light to moderate rains will still persist in the next three hours. Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, Pampanga, Rizal, Quezon, Bulacan, Cavite, and Batangas are likewise expected to experience rainshowers.
