OnMyWay Posted December 16, 2021 Author Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) It looks very strong, but the one good thing is that it is moving very fast now, at 28 kph. Looking at Windy.com, it appears that it will pass from Bohol over Cebu island very quickly, around midnight. It appears what the eye will pass very near to Inabanga, Bohol, my wife's home town. We know several people there including a BIL. Praying for everyone's safety! Take cover tonight! Edited December 16, 2021 by OnMyWay 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max wind gusts to 269 km/h. 24 months ago the eye of Yolanda passed over my city (Roxas). What happens to you often depends upon your house type and location. If in the eye, you can expect horizontal rain from one direction, a dead lull (ours was about 60 minutes) and then a resumption of the same wind force from the opposite direction. Even though we are north of the eye this time, everything will go into plastic bags, and the bedding fully protected since the house is not fully typhoon proof designed. Anything left unsecured outside will 'fly away' and disappear. Last time we had no power for only 10 days, but the time before (2012 or 2013) in the eye again, it took 2 months before we had electricity again. Hoping for the best. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnMyWay Posted December 16, 2021 Author Posted December 16, 2021 Windy.com now has the eye landing in Carcar at about 11 pm. Cebu City is probably starting to see high winds? Stay safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunker down Mike, I’ve went through two super typhoon direct eye passages when I was stationed in Guam, I was in a “typhoon proof” home with typhoon windows. I watched other peoples roofs and cars blowing across a field behind our house. Rain will go sideways and come in through every crack so put some towels down. I hope it weakens before landfall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
