The floods in these areas were gutter-deep and passable to all motor vehicles. Motorists however, tried to avoid going through the flooded areas to avoid having their vehicles stalled.

Some commuters along Taft Avenue and España Boulevard were thus stranded due to the lesser number of public transport vehicles on the said roads.

Quezon City

Meanwhile, in Quezon City, N.S. Amoranto Street near Araneta Avenue was still flooded as of before noon Saturday, according to Super Radyo reporter Carlo Mateo.

A brave motorist drove his car through the flooded street while a resident used a boat to get through.
