"The death toll rose to 33 in Colombia and past 50 in Venezuela, where
flooded rivers were hampering rescue efforts and attempts to recover
bodies. A total of about 64 had been reported dead in the neighboring
countries on Sunday.
Floodwaters forced 40,000 Colombians to flee and destroyed 5,000 homes, and
the government said it would send emergency funds to help rebuild homes for
those displaced.
Authorities were clearing scores of landslides and blocked roads around
Santa Cruz de Mora in Venezuela and remote villages left without water,
food or electricity.
"This has been very unusual. It doesn't rain like this normally at this
time of year," said the head of the Colombian government's emergency
office, Eduardo Jose Gonzalez."
