The water level of La Mesa Dam is almost at its spilling level and will continue to rise amid the downpour brought by Tropical Storm Enteng, state weather bureau PAGASA said Monday.
In its advisory, PAGASA said that La Mesa Dam is at 80 meters as of 1:30 p.m.
La Mesa Dam’s spilling level is 80.15 meters.
“Water from La Mesa Dam is expected to affect low-lying areas along Tullahan Rover from Quezon City (Fairview, Forest Hills Subdivision, Quirino Highway, Sta. Quiteria, and San Bartolome), Valenzuela (North Expressway, La Huerta Subdivision), and Malabon,” PAGASA said.
Residents of affected areas, especially those near the river banks, were warned against possible flooding.
PAGASA said it will continue to monitor the hydrological condition of the dam to provide updates to concerned agencies and local government units.—Mariel Celine Serquiña/AOL, GMA Integrated News
