00:00 The entire province of Bulacan was added to the state of calamity
00:05 due to the flooding in 16 towns and 3 cities.
00:10 Even those who will go to Metro Manila will be hit by flooding
00:14 in some parts of National Road.
00:16 And in a town, refrigerators are being used
00:19 to transport workers to work.
00:21 The latest in the live coverage of Cedric Atif.
00:25 Cedric.
00:26 Yes, Mel, Atom and Emil, in the latest in the live coverage of Bulacan PDRRMO,
00:36 the Pinsala was hit by 500 million pesos
00:39 by the strong winds caused by the two typhoons that passed.
00:43 Not a tricycle, not a pedicab, and not a boat,
00:52 but a floating refrigerator.
00:55 Marie's vehicle will be sent to work from their house in Malagtas, Bulacan.
01:00 It's good. It's good.
01:02 It's good that it has that.
01:04 It's hard to walk because it's heavy.
01:08 The broken refrigerators are closed.
01:10 It's just stuck to the styrofoam.
01:13 It has no holes, it's plastic. It's light.
01:17 So this can be used as a bag.
01:22 When it comes to MacArthur Highway, Marie was hit by a colorful water.
01:27 She can't remember when she last woke up,
01:31 when the sun was shining.
01:33 I'm so excited.
01:35 What do you think?
01:37 I think it's not yet. The weather is still dark.
01:40 This is considered a landmark in the town of Balagtas.
01:43 The water was still gutter this morning,
01:46 but it has already lowered a lot
01:48 compared to the previous heavy rain.
01:52 In this video that was taken by Clock Tower,
01:55 you can see the lower part of it submerged in the water.
01:59 Eteri staff member Abraham
02:01 will clean the hole that entered the store this morning.
02:05 When I got here, there was no water in the front,
02:08 and on the other side.
02:10 - There's no water inside? - No, sir.
02:11 What time did you notice that there was water again?
02:14 Around 8 o'clock.
02:18 MacArthur Highway is in the middle of the repair of this store.
02:22 Even though the water was high,
02:24 it was not affected by the rain.
02:26 If it wasn't tied, it would have fallen.
02:30 When I got here, it suddenly rose.
02:33 - Did a customer come? - No, not even one.
02:37 According to the Bulacan PDRRMO,
02:40 eight barangays of the town of Balagtas
02:42 were affected by the heavy rain that was caused by the Egay and Falcon.
02:47 Balagtas is one of 16 municipalities and three cities in Bulacan
02:52 that were affected by the flood.
02:55 Earlier, the entire province was declared under state of calamity.
02:59 The rain is still pouring down on many parts of Bulacan this afternoon.
03:03 But in some parts of Bustos,
03:06 the water has already reached the center of the province.
03:10 Motorists and commuters will be able to cross the MacArthur Highway to Manila.
03:16 The flood will still be a problem in some parts of the national road.
03:20 Emil, like here in our exact location,
03:27 near the boundary of Bukaway and Balagtas,
03:30 here in Bulacan along MacArthur Highway,
03:33 where the traffic is slowing down.
03:36 As you can see in the live video,
03:38 the high water level in our estimate is still above the gutter on the other side.
03:43 There's nothing we can do, especially the small vehicles and motorcycles,
03:46 that are just trying to get inside to get through the flood.
03:50 Emil?
03:51 Thank you very much, Cedric Castillo.
