LAOAG CITY, Ilocos Norte — Disaster response officials raised a Code Blue alert status in the Ilocos region due to Tropical Depression Dodong. The Regional Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (RDRRMC) said in a memorandum on Friday, July 14, that the declaration was meant to prepare areas in the region for the 'possible adverse effects' of the weather disturbance. In an advisory at 11 a.m., the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said flooding and rain-induced landslides were possible as Dodong was forecast to traverse the Northern Luzon mainland.
