STORYLINE:
Tombs were submerged at flood-prone Holy Spirit Memorial Park in Masantol in the Pampanga province of the Philippines on Thursday after heavy rains from tropical storm Trami inundated the cemetery.

The storm left 179 dead and missing and hundreds of thousands of people were still in emergency shelters.

The timing of the storm will also complicate Friday’s All Saints Day celebrations when large crowds traditionally gather at cemeteries across the country to visit the tombs of their departed loved ones.
