Flood advisories are raised in different areas in Metro Manila and parts of Luzon as heavy rains continue to impact the region.  

The weather bureau raised a red rainfall warning on Wednesday morning due to heavy rains caused by the Typhoon Carina-enhanced southwest monsoon.  

Areas under the Red rainfall warning, including Metro Manila, Rizal, Bataan, Pampanga, and Bulacan, are expected to experience “serious flooding.” 

Meanwhile, areas under the orange warning level including Cavite and Zambales, are expected to experience moderate to heavy rainfall with a risk of “threatening” flooding.  

The areas under the yellow rainfall warning, where flooding is expected in flood-prone areas, include Laguna, Batangas, Tarlac, and parts of Quezon (General Nakar, Infanta, Real, Mauban, Sampaloc).
