Marce!

September 11, 2008 · 4 Comments

As I pushed open the gate of our house to go workyesterday at around 12:30, this is what greeted me:

Nakngtokwa....

Nakngtokwa....

 

Traysikol....

I was with housemate Heidee and we had to wear capri pants and slippers to work. After a long wait, we finally flagged down a tricycle and asked the driver to take us “Kung saan po walang baha na makakasakay kami jeep.”

We had to put our feet up...

We had to put our feet up...

Oh Marce, you are so fierce.

 

 

Here are updates from PDI:

Typhoon “Marce” (international codename: Sinlaku) has intensified slightly as it continues to move north-northwestward at 7 kilometers per hour, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said.

In its 5 p.m. advisory on Wednesday, the state-run weather bureau said Marce would continue to enhance the southwest monsoon and bring rains over Luzon and Visayas, particularly in the western regions and might cause flashfloods and landslides.

Metro Manila could expect hard rains and thunderstorms, particularly in the afternoon until Thursday, said Boy Soriaga, weather observer of PAGASA.

As of 4 p.m., the center or the “eye” of Marce was spotted at 220 kilometers East of Basco, Batanes, packing maximum sustained winds of 150 kilometers per hour near the center and gustiness of 185 kilometers per hour.
