Typhoon Pepeng in Pangasinan
My blog is all about attractions in the province of Pangasinan but now I would like to share everyone the effect of Typhoon Pepeng to numerous Pangasinenses and how it affected their entire life. This is not a pride of Pangasinan but a real story regarding the lives of Pangasinenses in the past week.
At first, it was said from the news that the typhoon will affect Isabela and Tuguegarao. Yes, it hit the two provinces leaving damages in the agriculture. The two were set on tropical storm signal number 3 that time while the province of Pangasinan is suffering from just signal number 1. It was raining really hard in the province and after a day or two, it's still raining hard in Pangasinan. I don't even believe that it's just signal number 1 because of the rain which didn't stop in 3 days and 3 nights. It was continuous. It started Tuesday evening. At Thursday, people are started to see the effect of the typhoon because many houses were flooded and needs to transfer in higher places or be at evacuation centers. That night, the San Roque dam in San Manuel, Pangasinan open 6 gates releasing voluminous cubic meters of waters in a second which ended in more severe flooding because the rivers and dikes that will serve to contain those waters released can't hold that big amount of water.So, it ended in the destruction of dikes, the water overflowed and flooding resulted.
The flood destroyed many house, infrastructures and billions or trillions of agriculture. There were also deaths noted because of the incident. The SM City in Carmen, Rosales was not spared during the typhoon, flood waters entered the ground floor resulting in damage of goods and products. There were also approximately one thousand people trapped inside the SM because of the sudden enter of flood waters.
Dagupan City were mostly affected by the typhoon as well as a certain barangay in Rosales. Almost all of the towns in Pangasinan suffered from flooding especially the low lying areas. The pavement in Sumabnit, Binalonan was destroyed by the typhoon too.
After all those incidents, Saturday morning when there was dam break scare. There was a news that the San Roque dam has a break and if the people won't relocate themselves then, many will die. So, the people panicked. But the engineer of San Roque dam said a statement and told the people that the news was not true. According to him it would only happen when three of these things happen simultaneously: terrorism, super typhoon and earthquake.
Thank God that in Saturday, the sun already shined so brightly which also paved way for the people to get back to their normal way of living forgetting the trauma the typhoon had brought. After all the damages, I just hope the government will help its people in the best way that they could especially those farmers who profited almost nothing from their crops.
Whatever happens, life must go on. I know God is always with everyone and won't leave it's children who have suffered from the traumatic incident. Keep on praying fellowmen!
