Residents of Barangay Roxas in Quezon City evacuated as Super Typhoon Pepito approached, fearing severe flooding. Over 291 individuals sought shelter at the Multipurpose Gymnasium, though limited tents forced families to share accommodations. Residents criticized poor maintenance of Lagarian Creek for worsening floods, prompting cleanup and trash-trap installations by local officials. Barangay staff urged non-evacuees to leave as a precaution, while the QCDRRMO suspended weekend classes due to Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 2 in Metro Manila.
