Transcript
00:00First, let's talk about the situation in Aurora, where the typhoon Nika landfalled earlier at 8 in the morning.
00:07We have a reporter on the spot, Darlene Cai.
00:10Darlene?
00:14Connie, we can really feel it here in the house of Aurora Security, the strength of the typhoon Nika.
00:20We are still being swept away by the strong wind and rain, just like what you can see behind me.
00:26The tree fell, and you can see behind that tree, the other trees and plants, you can see the strength of the wind here.
00:38Since earlier today, the wind and rain have been strong, but it suddenly got stronger at 6 in the morning.
00:44There were occasions of zero visibility on the road.
00:48Several trees also fell.
00:50The roof of the covered court in the Security Central School collapsed.
00:55Some chairs and tables were also swept away by the wind.
00:58According to the Security Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office,
01:02they have been on alert since yesterday.
01:04They are being monitored by the Daluyong or Storm Surge,
01:08because a large part of the insurance is by the sea.
01:12There are also low-lying areas that could be flooded.
01:14That's why forced evacuations were carried out in most barangays.
01:18According to the latest information from the MDRRMO,
01:22812 families or 2,384 individuals have evacuated.
01:29Connie, it is now prohibited for sea vehicles to sail.
01:33Tourism activities such as surfing are also prohibited,
01:38especially at surfing destinations like Baler Aurora.
01:43Classes in all provinces are also suspended, Connie.
01:48Yes, Darlene.
01:50We are now at signal number 4 in Dilasag.
01:53We also heard from the MDRRMO in Dilasag earlier
01:58that there are still areas that need to be visited,
02:02but they can no longer go there because of the number of fallen trees.
02:07Darlene, we can see behind you that there are still trees there.
02:10Do you have any information on whether they have entered the areas
02:15that they will visit to carry out the forced evacuation?
02:23Earlier, Connie, I talked to the MDRRMO.
02:27They said that they still cannot go out or go around
02:33in some places in the town of Dilasag where there are still fallen trees
02:39and other debris on the road because of the strong wind and rain that they are experiencing now.
02:44So maybe as of 30 minutes ago, they still cannot go to those areas.
02:51Even if we go from here to Dilasag, we will not be able to go out easily
02:56because of the debris like fallen trees that are blocking the road, Connie.
03:01What about, Darlene, their line of communication?
03:04We can see that your signal is intermittent.
03:10But in those areas, do they no longer have electricity?
03:13And is their food supply already prepositioned in the areas of Dilasag?
03:24Connie, in the entire province of Aurora,
03:26including the town of Kasiguran and Dilasag,
03:29all the rescue equipment and relief packs are already prepositioned yesterday.
03:35So it is ready and they can use it and bring it to the affected areas.
03:42But the communication line is really difficult.
03:45Even here in the town of Kasiguran, there are only a few places that have signal
03:49and it is intermittent.
03:51And sometimes, it really disappears.
03:52That's why the communication line here is difficult, Connie.
03:55Be careful there, Darlene.
03:57And thank you very much for your update to us.

07:53Residents of Cagayan, Isabela, and Aurora must stay away from the beaches of Quezon,
08:00Polillo Islands, Camarines Provinces, and Catanduanes.
08:05Kapusong, tune in for the 11 a.m. bulletin of the Nica typhoon.
08:11We will also give you an update on the movement of two more typhoons in the Pacific Ocean
08:20that could enter the P.A.R. in the next few days.
08:28Before the Nica typhoon landed in Dilasag, Aurora,
08:31residents in more than 2,000 barangays were evacuated
08:35that could be affected by floods and landslides.
08:39Anti-DILG Secretary John Vic Remulia,
08:42places in the Ilocos Region, Cagayan Valley, and Cordillera Administrative Region
08:47are being monitored.
08:49The DILG also called for various agencies to be prepared for the necessary equipment
08:54to help those affected by the typhoon.
08:57In Isabela, more than 400 families from coastal towns or those near the sea have already evacuated.
09:05In Talapo of the Philippine Coast Guard,
09:07more than 400 passengers were stranded on 12 beaches in Calabarzon
09:13and Mimaropa due to the Nica typhoon.
09:17There are also more than 200 stranded on four beaches in Bicol Region.
09:25Residents in Tuguegarao, Cagayan have already started evacuating
09:28due to the effects of the Nica typhoon.
09:30Joining us on the spot is Jasmine Gabriel Galvan.
09:33Jasmine?
09:38Connie, the pre-emptive evacuation of the local government of Tuguegarao City
09:44due to the effects of the Nica typhoon.
09:47Since this morning, residents have been evacuated
09:50in the areas of Barangay Gosi Sur and Gosi Norte.
09:5411 barangays are currently being monitored by the CDRRMO in Tuguegarao City.
09:59These are the barangays in the low-lying area.
10:02As of now, there is no increase in the level of the Pinakanawan River and Cagayan River
10:07but due to heavy rainfall in Isabela, Ifogao, and even in Apayaw,
10:12major river systems in the province of Cagayan are already preparing for a possible increase in the level of the river.
10:18At this time, the effects of the Nica typhoon are already felt.
10:21The rainfall has been continuous since early this morning and the wind is also blowing.
10:27As of now, the repacking and prepositioning of food packs by the LGU in various barangays is ongoing.
10:33Tuguegarao City People's Gym is also ready to serve as an evacuation center.
10:38Aside from Tuguegarao City, the LGU has also alerted the towns in the southern portion of Cagayan.
10:46Meanwhile, residents are taking care of the flood-affected areas in 11 towns in the province of Cagayan.
10:54Connie?
10:55Yes, Jasmine.
10:56We will also investigate, because that area was also affected by the Marcy typhoon.
11:00We will investigate the damaged houses.
11:03Where are they now?
11:04Now that there is another typhoon, Nica?
11:09Yes.
11:10You know, Connie, after the Marcy typhoon, 32,000 houses were damaged in 13 towns in the province of Cagayan.
11:21As of now, there are still houses that have not been repaired because the weather has only gotten better for two days.
11:27That is why most of the residents whose houses were damaged are in evacuation centers or their relatives.
11:35According to the provincial government, they are continuing to provide support, especially food packs,
11:41to the affected residents so that they can be assured that they can eat properly
11:46and their situation in the evacuation centers is also fine, Connie.
11:49Thank you very much for your update.
11:51Jasmine Gabrielle Galban of GMA Regional TV.
11:56Meanwhile, here in Metro Manila, residents are also preparing for their homes in Baseco, Manila.
12:02EJ Gomez reports.
12:07The Pingka family has been living in Black Juan, Gasangan, Barangay 641 in Baseco, Manila for three decades.
12:13Whenever there is a typhoon, their houses are damaged in the evacuation centers.
12:17The road where their house is located and the Sarisari store are always flooded up to Bewang.
12:24When the flood reached our cell, we raised it so that it wouldn't get wet.
12:29Our rice was submerged in seawater.
12:33That's why we were damaged.
12:35I was the one who evacuated and my brother.
12:38My husband is the one who lives here.
12:40Because if we get hit by the typhoon, we won't be able to leave our house.
12:45Last night, the rain was just quick.
12:48But until now, the gutter deep flood hasn't stopped yet.
12:51That's why Father Thelmo is wearing his boots.
12:56If there's not enough water to run, I'm the only one here who has a gutter that works.
13:02I'm wearing my boots so that I can take care of the flood water.
13:05It's hard not to take care of yourself.
13:09You know, sometimes, it's an ocean lift.
13:12Baseco is prepared for any emergency that has a typhoon.
13:16Our emergency equipment and our rescue boat are ready for the typhoon, which is our signal number one in Manila.
13:23Our evacuation center is prepared for the people who will be evacuated.
13:28We are also prepared to go around 24-7 in all of our areas.
