This flooding of the highway and bridge in Poblacion, Sta Barbara and neighboring barangays but the cause is eerily similar – storm-induced floodwaters that breached two dikes in the town. Tropical storm Labuyo may not have directly hit Pangasinan but the rains it spawned caused rivers around Sta. Barbara to swell and the dikes at Sinocalan to give way. (PStar Photo by Butch F. Uka)
