00:18The length of E. Rodriguez Senior Avenue in Quezon City shrank due to the strong and almost non-stop rain yesterday.
00:27The first floor of the houses was flooded.
00:31That's why the residents were quickly evacuated.
00:34Around the second floor, we evacuated them.
00:38The water level rose very fast.
00:41We took the others inside their house.
00:45What was almost coming out was their head.
00:50The roof of their head was already stuck.
00:54Most of the people rescued were families living near the Umapau River.
00:59There were children, pregnant women, PWD, and elderly people.

01:27The affected residents don't know how they will recover from the effects of the storm.
01:32The clothing store that Jamil works at was not saved from the flood.
01:36It's very sad.
01:38There are a lot of things that can't be sold.
01:43It was rejected.
01:45It's hard because it's very tiring.
01:47We felt fear and trauma.

01:54This is the first image of the scene early in the morning here in the length of Araneta Avenue.
01:59The flood was in Lagpastuhud.
02:03Here on my side, this taxi was parked on the side of the road.
02:08But because of the strong and unceasing rain along with the fast rising of the flood,
02:13this is the position of this taxi.
02:17Father Amado, who is 65 years old, also suffered from trauma.
02:21Father, how are you here during the flood?
02:24This is the first time that I have experienced a flood like this.
02:30Our equipment was damaged, including the machines.
02:36Even our clothes were wet.
02:40The car also got stuck and our office was also damaged.
02:44Father Amado asked for help from the government.
02:48According to the local government,
02:50more than 14,000 families or more than 50,000 individuals
02:55need to be rescued from the impact of the Karina Flood.
