Rescuers are scrambling to reach people who have been stranded for days on their rooftops following two typhoons in a week.
The authorities are still trying to evacuate people amid a threat of further flash floods and landslides in the aftermath of typhoon Nalgae.
At least 52 people were killed and thousands made homeless after Typhoon Nesat hit the country on Tuesday.
Nalgae has followed the same route, killing at least three people.
The death toll is expected to rise following Nalgae's six-hour rampage on Saturday across areas of the main Luzon island already waterlogged by Nesat.
Nalgae has now moved into the South China Sea and is heading towards southern China with winds of 81mph (130k/ph) and gusts of 99mph (160k/ph).
