00:00 Several houses in Batangas and Iloilo were flooded in the aftermath of the bad weather.

00:04 Some streets in Metro Manila were flooded as well

00:07 after the heavy rain earlier.

00:10 Let's see.

00:11 Flooding in several parts of Barangay Balintawak in Lipas City, Batangas

00:21 after the heavy rain there yesterday.

00:23 Some houses were flooded

00:26 but despite the heavy rain, the water and mud remained.

00:32 Because of the heavy rain,

00:34 some residents had to move their belongings.

00:38 We were afraid that if the rain would continue,

00:42 we might drown.

00:44 Mang Pasito was also afraid.

00:46 His grandchildren were also at home.

00:49 If the rain doesn't stop,

00:51 we'll go inside until the door is closed.

00:56 We'll just take our belongings.

00:58 He's doing it in a way that's not sudden.

01:01 He's not using all the drainages.

01:05 Baradong Canal cleaned up the area of Barangay Balintawak

01:09 following the residents' call.

01:12 In Iloilo City proper,

01:14 some houses were flooded

01:16 and the traffic was slow due to the heavy rain.

01:21 According to Iloilo City DRRMO,

01:25 24 barangays experienced flooding.

01:28 Their drainage was blocked.

01:32 They were in low-lying areas.

01:35 Maybe because of the COVID-19 pandemic,

01:38 the barangays were flooded.

01:41 The LGU carried out a cleanup operation

01:44 to clean the drainage and gutter.

01:46 They were able to get garbage

01:48 that was used to block the canals.

01:53 The other day, some parts of Metro Manila experienced rain

01:57 like Quezon City,

01:59 which has almost zero visibility.

02:01 The streets were flooded due to gutter-deep rain.

02:06 According to the DRRMO,

02:07 the combined effect of heavy rain and localized thunderstorm

02:10 caused the Metro Manila to be flooded.

02:13 Because of the rain,

02:15 water was added to the dams,

02:17 like Angat,

02:18 which is now at the minimum operating level.

02:22 According to the National Water Resources Board,

02:24 they expect to add more water

02:26 due to the heavy rain and thunderstorm,

02:29 even if the water service interruptions

02:32 may not be implemented first.

02:34 But NWRB reminds us...

02:37 This 180.7 meters

02:40 is not a high portable level.

02:44 It's the same as the minimum operating level of 180 meters.

02:49 For GMA Integrated News,

02:51 Ian Cruz is your witness.
