MANILA, Philippines (Updated 7:29 a.m.. October 21) — Heavy rains spawned by Tropical Storm Pepito triggered floods and landslides in some parts of the country Tuesday ahead of its forecast landfall in the Aurora-Isabela area.

Pepito, the country’s 16th cyclone this year, gathered more strength as it barreled toward Aurora-Isabela area on Tuesday.

Heavy rains brought by Pepito triggered a landslide in Guinayangan, Quezon.

Authorities said several rivers have also overflowed due to heavy rains.
