President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. announces the suspension of classes in public schools on Tuesday, Aug. 23, 2022, as Severe Tropical Storm 'Florita' dumps heavy rains in parts of Luzon, including Metro Manila, earlier in the day. Malacañang, however, left the decision to postpone classes in private schools to the discretion of their authorities. The suspension came a day after the resumption of face-to-face classes on Monday, August 22. PHOTOS BY JOHN ORVEN VERDOTE, MIKE DE JUAN, RENE H. DILAN and MIKE ALQUINTO
