00:00A severe flood was also experienced in some parts of Laguna.

00:03In Las Piñas, motorists were stranded also because of the flood.

00:07And live, Rafi Timang.

00:10Rafi?

00:14PIA, until this evening, the rescue operation of the barangay officials in Pote Juan,

00:18here in Bacor, Cavite, will continue because of the continuous flood.

00:22The barangay has been requesting for days and days to send rescue boats

00:27because they are afraid to reach the second floor of their houses.

00:31For now, almost 70 families were rescued and brought to Barangay Hall and Zapote Elementary School.

00:37Aside from the continuous and heavy rain, the high tide caused flooding.

00:42Aside from Zapote Juan, some parts of Bacor were also flooded.

00:46Also in Las Piñas.

00:48The main reason for the flood on this main road is the high tide of the Longos River due to the continuous rain.

00:58Because of this, many motorists were stranded.

01:01Many of them just walked to get to Zapote Junction.

01:05There were motorists who were driving fast, but even though the engine was dead, it didn't move.

01:10You didn't know that it was deep?

01:12No, I was told that it was deep.

01:14Did you continue?

01:16I just pushed it.

01:20This is my first time experiencing this because I just started working until 5 p.m.

01:27But this is how it is.

01:30Here in Arikap, the water level is very high on the river bank.

01:34You two walked?

01:35Yes.

01:36Because of the continuous rain, the flood is afraid that it will increase.

01:40The officials of Barangay Zapote Juan are encouraging the barangay residents who are in the lower part of their area to evacuate now.

01:47The barangay also released their rescue boats for the residents who were asked to evacuate.

01:52You can see in the video that from the high tide, the flood reached up to the mouth of the river in some parts of the barangay.

01:58The water level is also very high, especially for those who are forced to walk in the flood.

02:03Good evening, barangay residents.

02:07We are here now.

02:10The water level is high.

02:14We have a lot of things to do.

02:18Various parts of Laguna were also flooded.

02:23The roads in Barangay Paagahan in Mabitac were also flooded.

02:30The flood in Santa Rosa, Laguna was also severe.

02:34The flood in Calamba, Tagaytay Road in Barangay Lawa in Calamba was also severe.

02:38There was no electricity in Calamba while the residents were evacuating.

02:44Some houses were completely flooded.

02:51At this time, we are experiencing heavy rain and strong winds here in Bacor, Cavite.

02:58There are also stranded motorists under the Longos flyover due to the high tide.

03:05Only big trucks are able to pass through.

03:10There are more than 100 stranded motorists here in Bacor, Cavite.

03:17They are hoping to temporarily open Cavitex for them to pass through because they cannot pass through here in Bacor, Cavite.

03:24That is the latest from Bacor, Cavite.

03:26For GMA Integrated News, I am Rafi Timang, your witness.
