Transcript
00:00The residents of Quezon City are working hard to clean up the flood-stricken areas.
00:06We have live news from Bea Pindac.
00:09Bea, how deep are the garbage? Is it garbage or sewage?
00:17Maris, there was a lot of garbage on Araneta Avenue earlier.
00:20But we're also here in Marikina River.
00:22We're monitoring the water level here.
00:25The water level in Marikina River is already at 15.7 meters.
00:30It's going down since 12 a.m. earlier.
00:34The river is only on the 2nd to 1st alarm here.
00:38This means that the residents here still need to be ready
00:42in case they need to evacuate.
00:44Let's go back to Araneta Avenue.
00:46Some parts of Quezon City were flooded yesterday or last night.
00:50That's why the residents are now completely clean.
00:56It's not new to the residents of Barangay Tatalon in Quezon City that the river is flooded.
01:00For some of them, this is how they live.
01:04Whenever it rains and floods, they are used to being clean.
01:10At 2 a.m., the rain stopped.
01:13But the river is still flooded here on Araneta Avenue in Quezon City.
01:18In Barangay Tatalon, the river is still flooded.
01:21That's why some residents need to ride a boat.
01:25After a few hours, the river is slowly receding.
01:29Some residents started cleaning the houses
01:32that were flooded with black and dirty water.
01:35It's tiring to move around like this.
01:41But we're used to it.
01:43We're used to this since we were kids.
01:46We can't help it if we have to face this kind of flood.
01:56But it's okay.
01:58Gemma came from the evacuation center.
02:02She washed the flood away
02:03so that she can start cleaning before her kids come home.
02:08Flooding is really common in their area.
02:11That's why they have to be careful whenever the weather is bad.
02:15When it rains, we know that it's going to be flooded.
02:18We know that we'll be evacuated.
02:20We know what to do.
02:21We're used to it. It's normal for us.
02:24It's tiring for a few days.
02:26It takes almost a week to clean and wash.
02:28But we're still living here.
02:30There's nothing we can do.
02:31Some trucks slowed down when the flood reached Araneta Avenue
02:35so that the water inside the houses on the side of the road wouldn't flow again.
02:41Maris, before we left Araneta Avenue last night,
02:44the flood had already reached the houses and the trucks were already passing by.
02:49Let's go back to Marikina River.
02:51Last night, the water level was calmer.
02:55That's the latest from Marikina.
