    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.
    If you'd recall Monday's rainshowers, yung part ng EDSA sa harap ng Megamall, baha dun. Yung mga sasakyan kala mo nasa harap ng stoplight na naka red signal, walang gusto umabante! Sobrang pasasalamat ko nun at hindi ako nagdala ng sasakyan papasok. Daming stranded nun, buti natyempuhan ko pang maluwag ang MRT sa ortigas, bilis ko nakauwi, yun nga lang basa ako sa ulan.

    wala na yatang di baha. The Capital's completely shut off!

    Planning to fetch my wife tomorrow at Jaen, Nueva Ecija. Planned route is thru NLEX-San Simon Exit-J Abad Santos Ave. Can anyone confirm if this route is safe from flooding? Thanks!

    Partally agree. Has lived in Sto. Nino and now in Concepcion at nung Ondoy nga lang din kami nakatikim ng matinding pagbaha. Before Ondoy we were unfazed kahit baha-baha na sa ibang parte ng Metro Manila. Ondoy changed all that though. Mas vigilant na ngayon.

    Aside sa mga malapit sa river banks though, marami ring portions dito na madali talagang tumaas ang tubig. I mean streets na madalas maging unpassable after a heavy downpour especially para sa mga smaller vehicles. Valley nga kasi kaya marami ring low-lying areas na nagiging catch basin. Pero hintay ka lang ng mga 30 minutes after humina ang ulan mababa na ulit ang tubig.

    Ang nakakabahala talaga ay yung siltation ng ilog. At its lowest water level, makikita mo na talagang ang baba na lang ng ilog ngayon.

    Better to take NLEX - SCTEX - La Paz - Sta. Rosa IMO. Kahiot walang flooding, potholes naman kalaban mo.

    Portions of NLEX are prone to floods. The more notorious among these is the Balintawak exit.

    Observe ko muna kung hanggang mamayang gabi up to morning e tuloy pa din ulan. Thanks, also saw in the news na baha na din daw sa Pampanga e, so malamang nga SCTEX na route ko bukas.

    OT:
    Those who plan to travel thru NLEX-SCTEX, saw these numbers on TV, pwede daw ito tawagan to inquire if passable pa or ask assistance:

    NLEX: 3-5000
    SCTEX: 09209672839

    I just drove from Paranaque to Greenbelt for a meeting. I didn't pass any flooded streets. I drove on West service road onto Sales bridge, drove straight along Lawton road up to the Fort then took McKinley all the way to Ayala and Makati avenue. There aren't a lot of cars on the road and parking was a breeze!
