‘Mina’ kills 16, leaves P1B damage
August 30, 2011
NOW on its way to Taiwan, Tropical Storm “Mina” (international codename: Namnadol) left at least 16 people dead, wreaking havoc on croplands in Northern Luzon, the region which bore the brunt of the cyclone last weekend.
In its 1 p.m. Monday update, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), also counted 21 injured and eight people missing as the number of those affected rose to 56,167.
Among the causes of death are landslides, flooding, and electrocution. Three people perished in Baguio City when heavy rains led to the collapse of a retaining wall of garbage, burying the victims.
Combined damage to agriculture and infrastructure reached P1.009 billion, broken down to P986.75 million for agriculture and P23.2 million for infrastructure.
Two days after its onslaught in 15 provinces, 1,215 families or 5,369 persons are still taking shelter in 38 evacuation centers, the disaster agency said.
Mina, which was earlier expected to skirt the country, pounded the provinces of Cagayan, Batanes, and Ilocos Norte with strong rains and winds over the weekend after a high pressure area rejected its northeasterly exit.
Public storm warning signals were lifted on Monday night as Mina was last located some 380 kilometers northwest of Basco, Batanes, state weather forecasters said.
Forecast to move slowly at seven kilometers per hour (kph), Mina was downgraded by the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) as a tropical storm with center winds of 95 kph and gustiness of up to 120 kph.
However, the storm’s pull on the southwest monsoon will still be felt in the coming days particularly over the western section of Northern and Central Luzon including Metro Manila.
Residents in low-lying and mountainous areas of these regions are alerted against possible flashfloods and landslides, likewise, those living in coastal areas are alerted against big waves generated by monsoon surge.
Waves as high as 5.5 meters are expected in the seaboards of Luzon, Pagasa said.
Fishing boats and other small sea crafts have been advised against venturing out into the sea while larger sea vessels were warned against big waves. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)
