The typhoon affected almost all parts of the country since last Friday. In our area (Central Vissays) all inter island vessels were not allowed to leave ports since yesterday and we had total blackout for almost 24 hours. The weather has gradually improved now.

Teofilo is based in Manila and we are in constant communication through text mesaging. It rained so hard the whole day today In Manila and many parts of the city are flooded including the area where he is residing.

I just send a text msg to Donald and I'm still waiting for his reply. I presumed they have total blackout in Pangasinan province now.

The typhoon leaves 86 dead and 700 missing nationwide.

Thank you for all your concern.

Eddie

Glad you guys are OK.
One question though, in case of an ordered evac, what kind of MT and BOB did you have??

This is above nornal because we got badly hit twice already in a month's time. As of this time 118 are already confirmed dead and 700 still missing.

I just heard from Duckman and he is ok in spite that their province was badly hit by the typhoon yesterday.

It's nice to know that fellow members of the forum are concerned about us. Thank you guys.

A ferry with 800 passengers sunk last Saturday off the coast of Romblon island. Only 8 survivors were found.
