5 Luzon dams released water amid heavy rains — PAGASA
Four dams in Luzon released water amid the continuous downpour brought about by the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat), state weather bureau PAGASA said Tuesday. PAGASA weather specialist Juan Paolo Pamintuan said the La Mesa Dam in Quezon City; Upper Wawa Dam in Rodriguez, Rizal; Ipo Dam in Bulacan; and Ambuklao and Binga Dam in Benguet released water due to the heavy rains. According to Pamintuan, the La Mesa Dam overspilled as its reservoir water level reached 80.17 meters as of 9 a.m., higher than its normal level of 80.15 meters. This is expected to affect low-lying areas along Tullahan River including Quezon City, Valenzuela City, Caloocan City, Malabon City, and Navotas. The Upper Wawa Dam also started overflowing on Monday evening and may affect areas along Pasig-Marikina River including San Mateo, Rodriguez, Antipolo, Quezon City, Marikina, Pasig, San Juan, Mandaluyong and Manila. 'In-inform tayo ng LGUs ng Rizal at Marikina na nakapag-preemptive evacuation sila. Currently, overflowing pa rin ang Upper Wawa Dam at dinadaanan niyan ang Pasig-Marikina River,' Pamintuan told Super Radyo dzBB. (The LGUs of Rizal and Marikina informed us that they conducted a preemptive evacuation. Currently, the Upper Wawa Dam is overflowing.) The Ipo Dam opened one gate and may cause flooding in nearby areas of Angat River. Its water level reached 100.28 meters, still below its normal water level of 101.10 meters. The Ambuklao and Binga Dam, meanwhile, opened three gates each at 1.5 meters over the weekend to release water. 'Ang baha natin, maliit lang contribution ng dam. Most of the contribution ng baha ay galing sa ulan,' said Pamintuan. (The dams have little contribution to the flood.) 'Although mababa, hindi pa rin sya negligible. Mayroon pa rin siyang epekto,' he said. (However, it still has impact and is not negligible.) — RSJ, GMA Integrated News
