Bangon Cagayanos!

Cagayan Valley has been hit by some of its worst flooding in decades, with torrents of muddy runoff forcing 66,000 from their homes and prompting rescues of trapped locals.String of storms battered its northern tip while monsoon rains were intensified by the passage of former typhoon Tisoy (international name Kammuri). Large swaths of lush green land were inundated after rivers burst their banks, leaving only treetops visible above the waterline. Landslides have cut off roads to some isolated towns and some bridges are covered by the flooding. There have been heavy rains for nearly a month as part of the monsoon season, which was worsened by at least three typhoons that have passed the Philippines since November.
