Kaya pala akala ko wala lang yung signal number 1, tapos yun pala kada ilang minuto hahangin at aambon/uulan 😵
Alala ko nung Ulysses nagreklamo ako na bakit wala naman ulan pero yung hangin dinaig pa mga ibang bagyong dumaan for the last decade or so na hanggang Signal no. 1 lang, haha.
Iirc wala pang Doppler radar ang PAGASA noong panahon ng Ondoy kaya hindi rin nila napredict yung dami ng ulan.
I was unaware of the flooding that Ondoy caused during its peak. Electricity wasn't cut off in our area either, internet connection was doing fine as well. It was only when I attempted to go out of the house to buy some food that I realized the damage it caused. No floods in our area, thankfully, but we're almost literally an island that day.
I should have been aware of the near-constant torrential rain all night and all throughout that morning though.
