                    [Title] => 2 Misamis towns under state of calamity
                    [Summary] => CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY — Two Misamis Oriental municipalities, hard-hit by a series of calamities in recent weeks, are both under a state of calamity. Officials of two other towns will decide on such a declaration today. 


Maricel Casino-Rivera, head of the provincial press office, said the Lagonglong municipal board declared a state of calamity last Aug. 7, while Balingasag councilors did so last Monday.

The two towns were hit by flash floods caused by a "cloudburst," which triggered heavy rains. Rampaging floodwaters breached a dike last Aug. 2.
