Summary
El Niño has placed 106 cities and municipalities across the Philippines under a state of calamity, affecting over 388,000 people according to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC). The government has provided assistance to 24,618 families out of 35,893 identified as needing aid. Agricultural damage figures differ between reports: one cites P6.87 billion in losses affecting 223,214 farmers across 14 regions, while another reports P5.58 billion in damages affecting 201,660 farmers and fisherfolk with 223,830 hectares of crop areas damaged and 117,037.69 metric tons of production lost. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) warned that El Niño could intensify into a 'very strong' phenomenon between September and December, persisting until the first half of 2027, bringing hotter temperatures and reduced rainfall. The CARAGA region has reported 39 wild, forest, and mountain fire incidents, water supply interruptions, and class suspensions in 33 cities and municipalities.
