MANILA - The high tide is exacerbating severe flooding in Sucat Road in Parañaque, with some areas reporting chest-high waters. Parañaque Mayor Edwin Olivarez said Sucat Road is currently impassable due to the flood. "Ang Sucat Road ay hindi po kayang daanan. Hanggang beywang po ang tubig ngayon. Ako po ay nagsasabi po sa motorista na mag alternative route muna at wag dadaan ng Sucat Road," he told ANC. Olivarez said at least 16 barangays in Parañaque are affected by the floods. He said the high tide is exacerbating the floods in the area. "Umapaw po yung creek dahil po sa kadahilanan na high tide at sumunod dun pumapasok ang tubig dagat sa ating Parañaque River. Apektado po ang lahat," he said. Mornings@ANC, August 20, 2013
