Just looking at the forecast for Manila International Airport.....
There's a chance for thunderstorms from around 3pm til 9 pm. I do have issues with the forecast though. The observation have winds coming from the east (10004KT) while the first line in the forecast have winds coming in from the west (26006KT). So, the forecast is already off right from the start. He could've stuck with light variable winds (VRB05KT). Then, the whole forecast is basically one line with four TEMPO groups. If I did that here, I'd get chewed out.
It means the forecaster who made the forecast isn't willing to stick his neck out and stand by his forecast. He just wants to cover himself. There could have been a couple of BECMG lines to break up the TEMPO groups.

With all these thunderstrom and heavy rain, is Angat dam filled enough to last until next year or weather the el nino ?
According to Bulacan govt. website, 201.52meters of of Oct 1.
i got a feeling pretty soon our problem would be too much water in Angat.
i don't think our dams can store more water than what's beyond their spilling level...which means it won't matter how much it rains today, by summer time we'll have low water levels again :p

the only consolation so far is that the volume seems to be controlled, so not much flooding
wala na siguro ngayon yun.. mabilis bumaba tubig don sa maysilo circle basta hindi na umuulan.. kaya nagbabaha don di pa kasi tapos yung flood control project don..
Did not drive our black ride to work today as it will look basura if it rained... It did....![]()
