    2018 Naga, Cebu landslide

    Days of heavy monsoon rains caused a landslide in Naga City, Cebu on September 20,
    2018, affecting at least two barangays. Limestone and soil on the mountainside
    softened due to the rain, and it collapsed on a number of homes that early morning,
    when many people would still have been in bed. The death toll rose to 29 as of
    September 21.

    Flood

    Over 20,000 people were evacuated in Metro Manila after severe flooding in areas of
    the National Capital Region (NCR). Many of those evacuated were in low-lying areas of
    Marikina City, where the Marikina River reached 16.4 metres (Alert Level 2) on 24 July.
    Heavy rain caused flooding elsewhere in the NCR region. As of 24 July, NDRRMC
    reported flooding of over 50cm deep in areas of Navotas, Pasig, Taguig, Caloocan,
    Malabon, Valenzuela and Muntinlupa cities in the NCR

    Over 80,000 people have evacuated their homes in the Philippines after severe weather
    brought by the southwest monsoon, enhanced by Typhoon Fabian (international name
    “In-fa”) from 22 July 2021.

    Lindol - 2012 Ms6.9 NEGROS ORIENTAL QUAKE

    A magnitude 6.9 earthquake shook the islands of Negros, Cebu, and nearby islands of
    Western Visayas region at 11:49 A.M. on February 6, 2012. The earthquake was
    generated by a thrust fault movement with the epicenter located in Tayasan, Negros
    Oriental. An Intensity VIII (very destructive) was felt in Tayasan, Vallehermoso,
    Jimalalud, La Libertad, and Guihulngan, Negros Oriental.
    The estimated total cost of damage to infrastructure was Php 383,059,000.00.00. A total
    of 51 dead and 112 injured while 62 were missing from the landslide in Solongon, La

    Pagputok ng volcano
    On 6 March 2018, the alert level of the volcano has been downgraded to Level 3 due to
    declining in unrest reflected by moderate seismicity and degassing, deflation of the
    edifice, and a decrease in eruptive activity at the summit crater. As of 8 March 2018,
    over 49,000 people are still taking shelter in 48 evacuation centers. (Govt. of
    Philippines, 8 Mar 2018)

    54,000 evacuees have returned home after the alert for the Mayon volcano was
    reduced to level 3. However, volcanic-related activity is ongoing including earthquakes,
    sporadic degassing and lava effusion events. The downgrading of the alert to level 3 will
    allow many people staying in the 61 evacuation centres to return home.

    Daluyong
    Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) is the most devastating Storm surge to hit the Philippines in
    the modern times. Its heavy winds and catastrophic surging of waters has taken away
    the lives of over 6300 Filipinos and about 1061 people went missing after the super
    typhoon. Haiyan is recorded to be the most devastating storm which hit landfall on
    November 8, 2013.

    Tsunami

    A few minutes after the last stroke of midnight on August 17, 1976, a violent earthquake
    occurred in the island of Mindanao spawning a tsunami that devastated more than 700
    kms of coastline bordering Moro Gulf in the North Celebes Sea. This offshore event
    generated by Cotabato trench, a less prominent trench system in the Philippines, was
    the largest tsunamigenic earthquake to have occurred in Mindanao in the last two
    decades. It was an earthquake that resulted in massive destruction of properties and
    great loss of lives. The tsunami generated contributed immensely to the devastation.
    The cities and provinces of Cotabato took the brunt of the earthquake while the tsunami
    generated cast its doom on the provinces bordering Moro Gulf especially on the shores
    of Pagadian City. According to surveys during the event, the tsunami was responsible
    for 85% of deaths, 65% of injuries and 95% of those missing. After the sea spent its fury
    and rolled back to its natural flow, thousands of people were left dead, others homeless
    or missing and millions of pesos lost with the damages of properties.
