Throughout late July into September, Cebu and the Visayas region experienced recurring isolated rain showers and thunderstorms driven by the southwest monsoon (habagat), as reported repeatedly by PAGASA. Notable moments included precautionary strong wind and rough sea warnings for the Ironman 70.3 Lapu-Lapu triathlon, monitoring of low-pressure areas that failed to develop into tropical depressions, and Tropical Storm Peilou moving away from the Philippines without significant impact.
