Persistent Enhanced Southwest Monsoon (Habagat) Rains over Luzon in July and August 2026: The Combined Role of a Stalled Madden–Julian Oscillation and El Niño
This study attributes the severe and prolonged southwest monsoon rains over Luzon in July–August 2026 to a stalled Madden–Julian Oscillation in Phases 6–7, which was anchored by a perturbed Walker circulation and subsequently generated a stationary monsoon gyre that drove intense moisture convergence and orographic lifting over the Zambales Range.
