FIL: Ang hanging hilagang-silangan na nagdadala ng malamig at tuyong panahon sa Pilipinas, karaniwan mula Oktubre hanggang Marso.
EN: northeast monsoon
This is the Philippines' version of 'winter is coming'. It's that glorious '-ber months' wind that signals cooler weather, bibingka season, and the start of endless Christmas songs in malls. It's the reason you can finally wear that jacket you bought on sale. The opposite of 'habagat', which is the hot, humid, and rainy season.
Refers specifically to the cool, dry northeast monsoon, not just any wind. Its counterpart is 'habagat' (southwest monsoon).
