About Palnab Del Sur

Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Virac's high flood-risk rating applies to Palnab Del Sur. This does not mean every property floods equally — some streets and elevated lots within the barangay may have a strong safety record. But buyers cannot assume safety based on the barangay name alone. Verify at the property level using PAGASA flood maps and DRRMO records.
