Tropical Storm To Hit Dumaguete In 48 Hours Or Less?

[Dave Hounddriver]

They are calling it Tropical Depression 23 at this site:

The prediction is Category 1 storm hitting Dumaguete in less than 48 hours from now.  Lots of rain and some wind.  Problem is that it is following the same pattern as Sendong in 2011.  Everyone in the area get ready for some flooding.

Dave if you hear any news on the area at lower Cervantes St Ex, on way to Robinsons  appreciate it. Last time the creek there over flowed resulting in bad flooding. Supposedly this has been remedied.

RBM I don't know how it will affect this Creek you mention but the River is Rising rapidly and if it feeds the creek it will rise also.

 

Seems whatever they Do they just can't remedy it.

 

Sorry I can't give you better News but the flood people are out there monitoring.

If the River breaches the Spillway like last time, we will be cut off in Junob again. Hypermart and Robinsons will have a field day Unless like many times before the Idiots out there try and cross it.

And the weather forecast says its only just begun.  The leading edge of the storm is upon us but the bulk is coming over the next 24 hours or so.  Rats.  Thats all I can think of to say.  Rats.  Anything else would be impolite  :cheersty:

Thanks for the information; I guess we stay put in Canlaon for the time being! Its chucking it down, here!

 

Grateful for an update on when the ferry to Dipolog resumes

I just heard that Signal 2 is up in Duma, so whatever that means it cannot be good.

Sitting in the nice F&C Guesthouse here in Canlaon City on generator looking at the rain - worst over now I think
