Flood Prone Streets database...

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. Pamove na lang po sa mga mods kung mali.

I'm new in roaming the Metro, and, with the rainy season about to approach, I searched tsikot for a thread giving info about streets to avoid for floods. I found none, hence, I'm starting this thread to solicit your answers on my question.

Sana po may sticky na ganitong thread para sa mga newbie like me. Thanks po!

Marami eh.

Can you tell us where particularly do you plan to roam around so we can tell if it's flood prone or not?

[Retz]

What roads do you travel usually?

If it rains and pours, one thing i always try to do as much as possible is hole up in a high and dry place (office, home or mall) and wait for things to settle down before venturing out.

nung last saturday night biglang buhos ng ulan, baha na agad sa frisco.

[chua_riwap]

basta umambon avoid espana......

The best option would be to identify high areas where it is safe to park.

Kasi pag alam mo naman na umuulan ng malakas shempre you will not go to that place.

Kung minalas ka naman at nag park ka sa lugar na alam mong binabaha, dapat alert ka pag nagsimula ng umulan ng malakas.

This forum is really very helpful for me, I am searching for something which are related to auto parts or auto mobile. Thanks for posting this forum.

eto yung mga alam ko na notorious sa baha talaga pag malakas ang ulan

Espana (winner)
vito cruz corner SSH (makati pa ata to)
Washington-Dela Rosa area Makati
Pasong tamo in front of Waltermart (actually, buong pasong tamo may patches ng baha lagi)
Buendia cor SSH
Sucat road (in front of SM, evacom, 4th estate)
Bicutan service road area
E.rod corner Araneta (pag sobrang lakas talaga ng ulan)
Marcos highway in front of Filinvest up to sa may Sumulong highway

Contrary to popular belief, hindi masyadong bahain ang Marikina, pinapalaki lang ng media, 30 yrs ako nakatira sa area at nung Ondoy lang talaga bumaha ng ganun, nasanay na ako na tuwing may bagyo eh tumataas talaga yung water level ng ilog, pero hindi naman bumabaha sa paligid (except of course for areas na nasa banks nung ilog)

Yeah that's why I never considered studying in UST, even if it's a good school and most people from our HS go there for college.

[Manilablock]

Add mo na din ung mga areas na sinasadya ang baha ng mga tulak boys at pedicab, sa kabilang forum tinatakpan ung daluyan ng tubig para bumaha sa lugar at pagkakakitaan nila

[testament11]

Mc Arthur Highway, especially yun stretch from Valenzuela up to Bocaue. Yan grabe din mag-baha.

[Retz]

Marulas Valenzuela bahain din....

[K.I.L.L.]

The lower parts of San Juan besides Santa Mesa floods. Streets such as Blumentritt in San Juan can have floods as high as your waist. Gilmore in New Manila would also have portions where it floods. On Tomas Morato, there is a portion where it dips and it always floods there.

Edsa contrary to popular belief alsohas a portion that floods. This is the area close to P Tuazon in QC if I'm not mistaken.
