Dark Clouds Loom Across The Metro : The Rainy Season is Here

Wazzup Pilipinas!

As reported and seen by many when dark clouds of a thunderstorm threaten Metro Manila in the photo above just before heavy rains poured over parts of the metro last Thursday causing floods in several areas and the suspension of classes in several schools.

In its 24-hour forecast issued 5 a.m. Friday, PAGASA said Palawan, Mindoro, Cavite, Batangas, Zambales and Bataan will have moderate to occasionally heavy rain showers and thunderstorms. Metro Manila and the rest of the country will have light to moderate rain showers and thunderstorms. The public is advised to be wary of floods and landslides.

I believe the rains are here, and so when it rains expect flooding in some, or most, parts of the Metro. Just take a look at the photos below where dark clouds loom across the Metro, specifically Ayala Technohub in Quezon City.

Captioned "That moment when you know you should run faster because it's going to rain soon."

Following Thursday's heavy rain and floods that stranded several students, the Department of Education on Friday reminded local government officials to coordinate more closely with state weather forecasters in suspending classes. When will we ever learn?


Bring an umbrella and jacket or raincoat to protect yourselves from the rain, and if it floods in your area, bring rain boots so you can safely walk in the flooded streets....if worst, bring a boat.
