OnMyWay Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 This is a big storm headed through Luzon over the next few days. Hopefully it will not turn into a cyclone, but it is big and full of rain. We could use a bit of rain here to clean out the mud dust from the recent flooding, but not too much please! http://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnMyWay Posted October 10, 2013 Author Posted October 10, 2013 Currently, the path is taking it just north of Angeles, so it might be a good idea to stock up tomorrow. I need to put together an emergency stash but still have not gotten around to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnMyWay Posted October 12, 2013 Author Posted October 12, 2013 Here in Subic Bay it has not been too bad, I think. Steady rain but nothing like we got during the monsoon back on Sep. 23rd, that caused the bad flooding. Hopefully the area gets through this without flooding. It has been a bit windy but nothing damaging here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Carl Posted October 12, 2013 Posted October 12, 2013 Storm signals in most areas of Luzon were lifted as typhoon “Santi Nice to see SANTI has no CLAWS Santi Claws! Ha well said Dave. We had a rough night, a fair bit of damage by the winds last night, and some leaking in our wet kitchen. Neighbors had roof sheets off, and some trees down, but all in all, we wethered the storm. Several Brown Outs through the night. Both Ellie and Chiya clung close for most of the night, but by morning all was well. Whether the weather be fine Or whether the weather be not Whether the weather be cold Or whether the weather be hot We'll whether the weather What ever the weather Whether we like it or not.
