00:07That and other effects of the typhoon Enteng in Bicol region were reported live by James Agustin.

00:14James?

00:18Mel, as a barangay resident, I am now in the barangays here in Naga City,

00:23which are still flooded up to this time.

01:32The heavy rain was accompanied by high tide.

01:39around 250 millimeters.

01:44Ordinarily, according to our local weather forecaster,

01:50this can happen within one to two months.

01:56At the same time, the high tide,

01:59because we have a river, the Bicol River,

02:04which is connected to San Miguel Bay,

02:10there is a time when the water level is high.

02:15The LDRMO also confirmed that there were two casualties in the flood.

02:19One man was electrocuted and one woman was injured.

02:23They were electrocuted while they were waiting for the evacuation.

02:27What happened was that it was dark,

02:29there was still electricity and it was flooding.

02:32The water level was high.

02:33Another child was also flooded.

02:38According to the barangay officials,

02:42he fell into a bed where the parents were not aware of it.

02:46Because of the flood, Naga City was submerged in a state of calamity.

02:50In Barangay Balagbag in the town of Milaor,

02:52the first floor of several houses was submerged in water.

02:55The water level was so high that Manghil could not bear it.

02:58It was raining.

03:00The water level was so high.

03:03It rained yesterday.

03:05This morning, there was a lot of rain.

03:08Last night, I went to sleep.

03:11All my belongings were in the back of the house.

03:13Renato's family uses a boat.

03:16It was also submerged in the house, not just his house.

03:18It was a boat.

03:19I made it for us.

03:22I just used it because

03:25I made sure that I will only use it if the water level is low.

03:30The flood and strong winds were raging

03:32that flooded the residents of Pio Duran in Albay.

03:36Some were evacuated for their safety.

03:41Because of the high water level in Labo River in Camarines Norte,
