Although many areas are still in knee deep water cleanup operation is now in full swing. Another typhoon already enters the Philippine area of responsibility. I hope Manila will be spared this time.

That would be a cruel tragedy for them to get hit again so soon.

I hope the next one misses Manila by a hundred miles.

My geography isn't the greatest these days- are any of you guys in the way of that one? Not that I don't care about the rest of the country, but I have to worry about our guys first!

Path of the typhoon is going to hit norther Luzon, unfortunetly I live in that vicinity but still hoping it isn't going to be a direct hit but we have buckled up for the storm........ Just talked to Gene, he is going to be okay just worried about the rain it might bring to Manila Our country men especially in Pasig City, Marikina City and other low laying areas are going to have a hard time especially after the flood last Saturday Hoping and Praying for them.
Eddie is going to be okay he lives in the Visayas Island which is farther South from us.

Its 4:47 am storm has passed, we are okay! Thank God the path of the super typhoon changed, Praying for the people who got hit by the super typhoon.
The last time I talked to Gene, he was okay Manila is not hit also, but hoping it didn't rain much there last night.

Another typhoon pummels the norhern provinces of the country. The most hardly hit province is Pangasinan, that's where Donald lives. More than 50 percent of the whole province is now flooded and no power.

I just talked to Donald. The concrete fence of their compound collapsed and part of their farm is now under flood water after 3 days of continuous rain. The whole country is in state of calamity.
