Super typhoon “Egay”, which enhanced the effects of southwest monsoon (habagat), left a trail of destruction in its path and dealt P2 billion worth of damage to the agriculture and infrastructure sectors, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) said Saturday, July 29.
President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. expressed satisfaction with how the government responded to the effects of Super Typhoon Egay, saying the coordination between the national and local governments of areas affected by the typhoon would ensure their swift recovery.
The state weather bureau said Tropical Storm Falcon entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) on Saturday, July 29.
