00:00Affected by the storm, residents and businessmen in Cagayan were afraid of flooding from the rivers.
00:24We have live news from Jasmine Gabriel-Galpan of GMA Regional TV.
00:30Jasmine.
00:39Igan, the weather is fine this morning here in Tugueg, Garau City.
00:43But due to the continuous rising of the Cagayan River, many residents were affected by the floods.
00:54Around 7 p.m. last night, shops and goods were quickly swept away by the floods in Central 10 in Tugueg, Garau City, Cagayan.
01:03The Caganawan River is already flooding. It's only a few meters away from the building of the floods.
01:09These children were helped to get out of their boxes and get into their vehicles to go to the grocery stores.
01:15We only brought a few things because we haven't brought our things back yet.
01:19Last time, the water was there for only 30 to 45 minutes. But we were able to carry everything.
01:26The refrigerator was moved to a higher place, next to the vegetable stores.
01:32It was fast because the dam opened. It took about four hours to get here.
01:39Aside from the grocery stores, the residents were also busy in arranging their things to get out of the flood because of the rapid rise in the flood.
01:47The flood usually hits people in the area.
01:49Later, we will get out of the flood. We are packing all our things because the water is flooding.
01:5711 barangays are being guarded by the authorities because of the flood.
02:01Now, the Pinakanawan River is flooding.
02:03There are people who have already fled because they are afraid that if they see that the rain will continue to fall,
02:11that it will be heavy, sometimes a little, that's not the thing.
02:15The reason for that is because the water will come from the dam.
02:18The Kagayan River is already above the alarm level.
02:21Aside from Tugay Garaw, the town of Baggao also experienced flooding.
02:25Because of the heavy rainfall brought by the Nica typhoon, they gradually removed part of this area.
02:31Since yesterday morning, there was no power supply in the towns of Balisteros, Lasam, Abulug, and Rizal.
02:43Igan, I will just show you the situation here in our barangay, Centro 10.
02:48Because of the continuous rising of the Kagayan River, the flood almost reached the roof of the houses.
02:56There are many residents in the evacuation center, more than 500 families are in the evacuation center.
03:01But some did not flee.
03:04Instead, a tent was built here on the road where the items were placed and where they slept and ate.
03:13That's why the monitoring of the local government is still ongoing.
03:16Igan?
03:17Thank you very much Jasmine Gabriel-Galbano, GMA Regional TV. Be careful.
