    Does this mean it's going to flood again at SSHW/SLEX?

    I am worried about people who live near Laguna de Bay. Pano kaya yung Posadas Village?


    Laguna de Bay level apt to break 90-year record

    AIE BALAGTAS SEE, GMANews.TV

    The water level in Laguna de Bay is set to break its 90-year record, threatening to submerge more areas in Metro Manila and several nearby provinces in flood waters, a government official said Thursday.

    Edgar Manda, head of the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA), said that as of Thursday night, the lake is almost 14 meters deep - half a meter away from the bay’s highest recorded level of 14.5 meters measured in 1919.

    He said the water level in the bay could further rise once typhoon "Pepeng" makes landfall on Saturday, Oct. 3.

    The LLDA chief said tropical storm “Ondoy" (international name: Ketsana), which pummeled Metro Manila and nearby provinces last Saturday, contributed to the “anomalous" rise in the bay’s water level.

    He said the increase should not have taken place for at least 10 years.

    “Anomalous dahil dapat umabot pa ito ng 10 years. Nag-accelerate because of climate change at aggravated ni ‘Ondoy’," he said.

    “Ondoy" brought 341 millimeters of rainfall in the country in a span of six hours last Saturday and flooded huge portions of Metro Manila and the provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon (Calabarzon).

    Manda said residents living near Laguna de Bay, especially those affected by the floods caused by “Ondoy," are advised to relocate immediately.

    Delikado ito in a sense that those living around 12.5 meter elevation and the next layer, papasukin na sila," he said.

    The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said “Pepeng" had gained strength and is now packing maximum winds of 195 kilometers per hour (kph) and gustiness of up to 230 kph.

    The typhoon, carrying what Pagasa called "disastrous" winds, was spotted 440 kilometers (km) east of Catarman, Northern Samar and was forecast to move west northwest at 24 kph.

    Heavy rains are expected in the Bicol Region and Eastern Luzon starting Thursday night, according to Pagasa chief Nathaniel Cruz. - GMANews.TV.

    True. Ganun din naman ako eh. Pero sometimes, some people wants to be relaxed. Minsan kasi, kung hindi narerelax, you'll feel tired etc. Iba nga, nakuha pa magbiro sa gitna ng ganito eh.

    Yun lang.

    nope! kaya nagka flood sa SLEX was bec masyadong maraming binuhos na ulan and not bec umapaw ang Laguna de Bay.

    and besides mataas ang SLEX kung nabaha ang SLEX bec umapaw ang Laguna De bay it means baha na lahat ng city sa south area, baka Tagaytay na lang ang hinde...

    ito sabi nun administrator

    Daming tao sa grocery ngayon. Parang they're preparing more than they actually need.

    Panic buying na mga tao ngayon, preparing for the typhoon. Medyo mahirap din iyan, madali mawalan ng supplies dahil sa dami ng tao. Baka candles at batteries mawala na rin. Haayy...PEPENG, go away.

    Here in QC, madilim na at umuulan na rin.

    Ayon sa teleradyo ( ch.26 ) humihina ang bagyo habang lumalapit ito ng bansa. At itong si Bagyong Pepeng ay hindi masyadong aapektuhan ang MM kagaya nang ginawa ni Ondoy dahil ang tatahakin nitong daan ay mas malayo kaysa sa tinahak na daan ni Ondoy, at ang dala nitong ulan ay mas kaunti sa dalang ulan ni Ondoy. ;)

    Ang magagawa nalang siguro natin ay ipagdasal ang mga taong nasa N. Luzon dahil sila ang direktang tatamaan nitong si Pepeng.

    Paano naman kasi cyclone na ang tawag sa CNN tapos it's going to be worse than Ketsana daw. May mga offices dito na nagpauwi na. Samin hindi na ko umaasa. Sana makarating ako ng bahay bago lumakas ulan at hangin.

    kasi, kaya sinabi dito



    hihina daw pag nag-landfall na siya. so kung tama ang sinabi ni robert, from 240kph to 195kph, hindi pa rin biro yan. pero kung bukas ang basis, around 176kph to 209kph... :hammer:

    di pa rin biro!!! :hammer:
