                    [Summary] => PANIQUI, Tarlac — There may be no more heavy rains but large portions of five Tarlac municipalities are still heavily flooded.


This, as excess water released from the San Roque Dam in upland Benguet has worsened the flooding in the five towns, whose residents found their homes inundated after an earth dike along the Tarlac River collapsed last Friday, Gov. Jose Yap Sr. said.
