MANILA, Philippines — Expect warmer weather in the coming days after the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration declared on Wednesday the start of the dry season.

"The public is advised to take precautionary measures to minimize heat stress and optimize the daily use of water for personal and domestic consumption," PAGASA said.
