Weather TALK [forecasts, etc]

[niky]

Most of our big trees that are vulnerable already went down during Ondoy... minor lang damage dito, but we had a short scare when the river rose twenty feet in less than one hour when the typhoon hit Cavite. PAGASA kept saying the typhoon would head north... instead, the eye went right over us here in the south!

^^^ Diesel na ba ang genset mo bro?... I am having problems with my gasoline-fed genset... Dahil e10 na ngayon.....

Ouch. When you buy a genset, buy diesel. Diesel gensets last longer. You can't get them in the same small sizes as gasoline sets, so you have to spend more up front, but at least you can run them for longer periods of time.

Looking at getting a secondhand one and running it on veggie oil.

Annnnd now we have power.

For those who lose internet and TV coverage during brownouts, you can get updates from Typhoon2000 by texting "T2K TYPHOON" or "T2k TYPHOON SIGNALS" to 2800 (Globe/TM) or 216 (Smart/TnT).

The T2k TYPHOON SIGNALS update is useful for knowing if your kid will have school... but to know whether to run to the hills in fear, the T2K TYPHOON update is better.

Save it on your cellphone now. It comes in handy. I've been using it all night.
