A tropical storm has set off floodings and a landslide in the southern Philippines, leaving at least four people dead, displacing more than 6,000 and trapping residents in houses in two flooded villages. Tropical Storm Penha slammed ashore in the southeastern province of Surigao del Sur from the Pacific late Thursday. It was last tracked Wednesday noon off central Bohol province with sustained winds of up to 34 miles per hour and gusts of up to 43 miles per hour, according to forecasters.
