A very Bad Weather Day

The sun is not shining again in Metro Manila and maybe in almost all parts of Luzon. The rain continuously downpours coupled with very strong winds. Metro Manila is flooded already and traffic is worst ever. Vehicles are trapped and cannot move due to the high waters. My husband is one of those who are stranded in the middle of the street. They cannot get through because one of the creeks in Quezon City has already overflowed, causing high level of flood which makes the vehicles being stuck in the streets. Worst scene is most of the department stores and other commercial facilities which are open are already flooded inside their vicinity.

The calamity is due to the Tropical Cyclone that hits Luzon.

MANILA - More than 30 areas in Luzon, including Metro Manila, were placed under storm alerts as tropical storm "Ondoy" accelerated further and moved closer to Central Luzon on Saturday morning.

Weather bureau PAGASA said Ondoy was traveling west northwest at 19 kilometers per hour, packing maximum sustained winds of 85 kph and gustiness of up to 100 kph.

Public storm warning signal No. 2 was hoisted over La Union, Pangasinan, Benguet, Nueva Vizcaya, Quirino, Aurora, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, Tarlac, Zambales, Bulacan, northern part of Quezon, Polillo Island, Camarines Norte and Rizal.

Signal No. 1 was raised over Isabela, Mt. Province, Ifugao, Ilocos Sur, Bataan, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Marinduque, Mindoro provinces, Lubang Island, southern part of Quezon, Camarines Sur, Albay, Burias Island, and Metro Manila.

PAGASA said the storm is expected to enhance the southwest monsoon and bring rains over the central and southern parts of Luzon, as well as the Visayas regions.

This is only signal number 1? My God , what will happen it this will accelerate to Signal no. 2. I just pray this storm will subside soon. I hate this kind of weather, everything gets gloomy.
