Pagasa warns of flashfloods, landslides in Bicol, Visayas due to ‘Urduja’
Residents in the Bicol region and the Visayas should brace for flashfloods and landslides due to persistent rainfall brought by Tropical Storm “Urduja,” according to the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
This, as Urduja slowed down and remained “quasi-stationary” while moving northwest at 5 kilometers per hour (kph) towards Visayas, Pagasa said in its 5 p.m. severe weather bulletin.
Moderate to heavy rainfall is expected within Urduja’s 500 kilometer diameter, Pagasa said. Scattered to widespread rains will prevail over Bicol region and Visayas.
“Residents of these areas must undertake appropriate measures against flooding and landslides and coordinate with their respective local government and disaster risk reduction and management office,” the state weather bureau said.
As of this posting, the Tacloban City Council declared a state of calamity.
Sea travel remained risky over the eastern seaboards of Bicol and Visayas due to Urduja, Pagasa said.
