00:00Motorists in Quezon City were perplexed because of the heavy rain.
00:05A car was stranded and drowned in the flood.
00:08Some businesses were forced to evacuate because of the flood.
00:13That's the first live news of James Agustin.
00:16James.
00:21Igan, Susan, Ivan, good morning.
00:23This part of Araneta Avenue on the roads here in Quezon City was flooded.
00:27Because of the heavy rain, many of our fellow motorists were forced to evacuate because of the continuous flood.
00:35The Quezon City Local Government announced that there will be no entrance to all untapped public or private schools because of the bad weather.
00:47The rain poured down in Quezon City before 11 o'clock last night.
00:52The roads were flooded like Maria Clara Street.
00:55The water level in this part of Santo Domingo Avenue is also high.
00:58In Enes Amoranto Street and Patagos of Araneta Avenue, light vehicles could not pass.
01:04A car was stranded in the flood while a truck could not make it.
01:09Other motorists just returned.
01:11We couldn't make it. There's a car in the middle of the road.
01:16We couldn't make it.
01:18Maimai drowned in the water with her husband.
01:22The flood reached the house of the store they were guarding.
01:25That's why they evacuated some of their belongings.
01:27We are used to it because we are looking for a place to live.
01:31But if it's a big house, we will be afraid.
01:35But if it's just like that, we can handle it.
01:39It was past three o'clock in the early morning when the heavy rain poured down on Payatas Road.
01:43The visibility was almost zero.
01:45The situation is also the same in some parts of Commonwealth Avenue.
01:49The rain also poured heavily on Elliptical Road.
01:56For the time being, this is just a light rain that we are experiencing here in Quezon City.
02:01But this flood here in Araneta Avenue, as you can see,
02:05this is the lane from the area of Maria Clara Street that goes to Quezon Avenue.
02:11Earlier, we saw a few trucks that could pass through here,
02:16but there were no light vehicles.
02:18On the side of the road, we saw that there were three motorcycles that fell.
02:23Because when the trucks pass through here, the flood was very strong.
02:28That's why some motorcycles fell and were not evacuated.
02:31There were residents who evacuated their motorcycles on the higher part of the road.
02:37That's the first news.
02:38From Quezon City, I'm James Agustin for GEMA Integrated News.
