Description
Issued on 19 February 2026 at 4:00 AM, cloudy skies with scattered rains and
isolated thunderstorm may have caused possible flash floods or landslides due to
moderate to at times heavy rains caused by Shear Line in Caraga, Davao Region,
Northern Mindanao, SOCCKSKARGEN, Eastern Samar, Samar, Biliran, Leyte,
Southern Leyte, Cebu, Bohol, Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi.
On the same day at around 2:00 PM, continuous moderate to heavy rainfall brought
by Shear Line caused flooding in several parts of the Davao Region. The prolonged
downpour caused rivers and creeks to swell, resulting in the inundation of low-lying
and flood-prone communities.
On 20 February 2026, significant rainfall due to Shear Line also caused flooding,
triggered landslides, and forced the evacuation of the affected residents in several
areas in the Caraga Region.
In response, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), through
its Field Offices (FOs) XI and Caraga, in coordination with the affected Local
Government Units (LGUs), immediately provided food and non - food items (FNIs)
and financial assistance to address the needs of the affected population.

Relevant Disasters
The ASEAN Disaster Information Network (ADINet) is a repository of information concerning hazards and disasters that have happened in the region. The platform is open for public, which means that the public can submit information about any hazard and disaster to the AHA Centre. Thereafter, the AHA Centre will verify and validate any submitted information to ensure the accuracy of the data inputs. The AHA Centre can also add new information when relevant and as necessary. ADINet has been recording disaster information in the region since the AHA Centre was operational in 2012.
