According to an early evaluation, Quezon was “hardest struck” by “Karding.”
The province of Quezon is believed to have been the area most severely impacted by Super Typhoon Karding, according to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), while damage assessment in the affected areas continues.
“Ongoing assessment tayo at we are of course looking at Quezon based on the initial report natin, umikot nga kami kanina with the President (Ferdinand Marcos Jr.) ano, tiningnan namin itong Nueva Ecija area at mukhang very minor yung effect nung bagyo. We previously flew with the President, and from what we can see of the Nueva Ecija region, it appears that the typhoon’s impact there is minimal, “Bernardo Rafaelito Alejandro IV, NDRRMC spokesperson and assistant secretary for civil defense made the statement during the Laging Handa briefing on Monday.
Alejandro continued by saying that they were awaiting additional details regarding storm damage.
“But so far we have not received any damage reports because our assessment is still ongoing, and the LGUs are assisting with that, so hopefully, before the end of the day, we will have those figures but so far in general mukhang very minimal as we speak (But so far we are still to receive any damage reports because our assessment is still ongoing and the LGUs are assisting with that, so hopefully before the end of the day we will have those figures but so far in general mukhang very minimal as we speak.
He continued by saying that 52,000 people had been evacuated by the authorities, with casualties reported in Bulacan and reports of people missing in Camarines Norte.
He did, however, add that reports on these occurrences are still being gathered.
Bernardo added that there had been reports of power outages in Quezon and Camarines and sporadic communication lines in Quezon to the NDRRMC.
Around 43 seaports have reportedly ceased operations, but the NDRRMC official expressed optimism that they will resume once the typhoon and gale signals have been removed.
He added that 2,882 people have so far been left stranded in the Calabarzon, Mimaropa, and Bicol regions and that they will resume their journeys once the Coast Guard permits ship movements to resume due to the improving weather.
