00:00In the state of calamity, Ilocos Norte was also flooded after a super typhoon destroyed several bridges, roads, and bridges.
00:10Many families were evacuated.
00:12This and other typhoons in Northern Luzon, in this episode, live by Jasmine Gabrielle Galvan of GMA Regional TV.
00:22Jasmine?
00:25Mel, yesterday, there was still heavy rainfall in several towns in the province of Ilocos Norte.
00:32Now, more than 17,000 families were affected by the super typhoon Julian in the province.
00:43Until this morning, there was still heavy rainfall in several towns in Ilocos Sur.
00:48In Candon City, several houses in Barangay Kalawaan were still submerged in the flood.
00:56This farmland was flooded.
00:58So, some farmers tried to plant rice.
01:02The water was really high, up to the road.
01:05As of now, more than 40 people are still staying in the evacuation center.
01:10The water is rising. The flood reached our house.
01:15In the town of Santa, there was mudslide.
01:18But the DPWH immediately carried out a clearing operation.
01:21Because of the heavy effect of Hurricane Julian, Ilocos Norte was submerged in a state of calamity.
01:27The flood is slowly receding.
01:29That's why the residents inside the city are cleaning up one by one.
01:32There are garbage trucks that are moving around to remove the trash left by the flood.
01:36According to the CDRRMO, there are 655 families from 24 barangays in the affected province.
01:44Some were evacuated to Barangay Gabo Norte because of the mudslide.
01:49Some were cut off from the town of Vintar and a part of the road was cut off from the river.
01:54Those who were damaged in a cemetery in Sarap were also saved from the flood.
01:58The largest population is mostly from Barangay 1.
02:04Even the infrastructure here in Gabo is really dragged.
02:10That's why we are monitoring it also.
02:14We heard that there are casualties.
02:17But there is no verified information or official report.
02:22One is in Batac, one is in Pauay.
02:26That's missing.
02:27And then one is here in Dawag City.
02:29Up to 250 houses were submerged in the three-step deep of the river
02:35in the City Subdivision of Barangay Lumbang in Calasio, Pangasinan.
02:39In the rainy season and those that are not yet finished,
02:43the water level will go up to here.
02:48The water level here is low.
02:50No one has been evacuated yet but relief goods are ready.
02:53Earlier this morning, Marusay River reached 6 feet in the town.
02:58It is already close to 8 feet of critical level.
03:00In Lagayan Abra, seven individuals were saved after being trapped in the Tinig River.
03:06They are in good condition.
03:08Because of the narrow road and landslides in Bulinoy,
03:12a wheelchair was needed to carry the discharged patient.
03:17He was then taken to a police car to go home.
03:20There were also landslides in Baguio-Bontoc Road and Alab section in Mountain Province.
03:25According to the information received by the PDRRMO from the Philippine Red Cross,
03:30two houses were damaged in the landslide,
03:32as well as several different types of vehicles.
03:35No one was injured in the incident.
03:38Mountain Province, Ilocos Sur Road, in the Barangay Poblacion in the town of Bauco,
03:41was also closed due to landslides.
03:46The local government of Baguio City also conducted an assessment and inspection.
03:50The landslides happened in Barangay Dominican, Mirador and Naguilian.
03:55Mel, there are currently 1,000 individuals in the evacuation center.
04:04They are still not allowed to go home due to the continuous rainfall.
04:08Meanwhile, as of 6 p.m., the damage to agriculture reached P85 million.
04:15But it is expected to increase when the reports of various LGUs in the province of Ilocos Norte are submitted.
04:23Jasmine, it is expected that the Super Typhoon Julian will enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
04:30What are the preparations being made by the people of Northern Luzon?
04:39Here in the province of Ilocos Norte, Mel,
04:41because this is the most affected region when it comes to the effects of the Super Typhoon Julian,
04:47the provincial government is currently monitoring the northern portion of Ilocos Norte.
04:53This includes the town of Pagudpud,
04:55this is where we will enter due to the high waves in the bay.
05:00Preparations are currently being made by the residents in coastal areas due to the storm surge.
05:07In case, Mel, the Super Typhoon Julian enters the Par again,
05:12it will have a big effect on the gale warning.
05:15The high and strong waves are possible.
05:17That is why it is still important to monitor the residents in coastal areas due to the storm surge, Mel.
05:27Yes, but inside the town, are there still flood areas?
05:31And the evacuation centers, are there still?
05:34Jasmine?
05:35Yes, Mel.
05:36Mel, in the evacuation centers, there are still evacuees.
05:40Actually, there are towns where the weather is okay,
05:44but the evacuees are still not allowed to go home because the Super Typhoon Julian is still there.
05:51In the flooded areas, compared to yesterday, many places have subsided,
05:56but there are portions where the flood is still high.
06:00The areas that we passed earlier in Pasukin, there are still floods.
06:06Most of them, Mel, are rice fields.
06:08In the houses, there are only a few, but most of the agricultural areas are flooded, Mel.
06:12The rice fields are flooded, Mel.
06:15Thank you very much, Jasmine Gabrielle Galban of GMA Regional TV.
