Strong rains over the past few days caused numerous places in Pampanga to flood, prompting the declaration of a state of calamity in some municipalities.
According to Pampanga's Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO), the state of calamity was declared in Macabebe, San Simon, and Sto. Tomas, and San Luis due to floods brought by Typhoon Egay.
About 222 barangays in 16 municipalities in the province are flooded, the office reported.
According to the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) - Central Luzon, more than 189,000 people have been impacted by flooding in Region 3, and relief efforts are still underway.
Although Egay exited the Philippine Area of Responsibility last week, its effects are still felt in some areas of the country due to another typhoon, Falcon, which has emerged and is causing further rain.
