00:00More than P600,000 were left behind by the typhoon Hulian in Batanes.
00:06And even though the typhoon is far away, mudslides and rockslides are still experienced in some places there.
00:12Joseph Moro was able to talk.
00:17This resident of Barangay Sinacan in Saptang, Batanes did not hesitate to leave the cut-off road
00:22in the aftermath of the typhoon Hulian this Monday.
00:26Due to the strong winds and rain, almost nothing can be seen around.
00:31The barangay was also flooded.
00:37While some boats were towed to be saved from the strong waves.
00:43But after the typhoon, mudslides still occurred in some boats.
00:48And many trees still fell on the roads.
00:51And even though the walls of houses were saved, some roofs were damaged.
00:55This one, no one lived in the roof.
00:59According to the forecast, after the typhoon Hulian this Monday, the eye wall or the side of its eye in Saptang was hit.
01:05Even in the eye wall, thunderstorms are still falling with strong rain and wind.
01:11Mudslides and rockslides are still experienced in Batanes even though the typhoon is far away.
01:15But clearing operations have already started in many places there.
01:19Like in Ibana, Batanes, where hundreds of boats have already been cleared.
01:24Some, like this National Highway in Basco, were inspected by Governor Marilu Caico.
01:35According to the Capitol, the typhoon Hulian in Batanes has already caused more than P600 million pesos.
01:40But the province can breathe a sigh of relief now
01:43because the fear of the typhoon Hulian returning today did not happen.
01:47It has already recurred to Taiwan.
01:50Even though the typhoon Hulian is already hitting Taiwan,
01:53the residents of Batanes and Babuyan Island are still hopeful
01:56because it is possible that there will still be rain experienced because of its rain band.
02:01The typhoon is still expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility
02:05even though the typhoon will leave Taiwan on Friday night or Saturday morning.
02:10It is possible that it will still affect Batanes
02:13so we are still hoping for strong winds and rain.
02:17Only signal number one is high now.
02:19It is weaker than signal number four of this typhoon.
02:22Hopefully, the weekend will be good.
