    ^ yeah have the same theory sir. minsan ung binungkal na lupa naman. Ung storm drain malapit sa amin puro buhangin/lupa na, almost at road level. They should force these developers to clean up after themselves.

    impassable pa rin sa Araneta-Kaliraya-E. Rod hangang ngayon... Also Q.Ave is a parking lot from Delta-West Ave dahil baha sa Araneta underpass, though water has already receded somewhat.

    Condo building constructions all over the metro also contribute to these clogged drainage pipes. What a mess.

    Two hours from Pina-Santol to Scout area in Kamuning this morning. As usual, flood in Araneta exacerbated the traffic situation. MPTB personnel was nowhere to be seen. Baranggay (both QC and Manila) personnel, also MIA. And all those parking on the street overnight -- you wish their cars spontaneously exploded or something -- they really make a bad situation worse.

    yung ulan na nararanasan ngayon eh mainit na type ulan.

    Dalawang gabi ko na pinag-mamasdan color ng ulap. Around 11pm pa lang natancha ko mukhang bubuhos ng madaling-araw.

    Medyo kakaiba ito ulan. Parang hindi habagat, hindi thunderstorm. Basta kakaiba.

    what makes it worse for them is di sila sanay sa init

    tayo we're used to 38 or 40 degree C dry seasons

    sila 25 C palang mainit na para sa kanila

    40 C is deadly to them
