Pepeng (Parma) - Another Typhoon Is Coming...


Typhoon Pepeng (international code Parma) was said to bring more rains and strong winds in Northern Luzon including Metro Manila on Saturday afternoon. Just a week from typhoon "Ondoy's" massive destruction. Some provinces are still flooded until now and here comes another one which was said to be stronger than "Ondoy".

"There is a big possibility that it will become a supertyphoon. This is a very strong storm, packing winds of 175 kilometers per hour and gusts of up to 210 kph. Most likely it will make landfall in the afternoon of Saturday. That is when it is most critical," Nathaniel Cruz, PAGASA director for operations said in a press briefing.

Just like my friend Windy of Windmill on the Hill just said during our chat, "yah all hell is breaking loose."

He said I should run for the hills! Lol! How I wish there were hills to run to here in Makati.

I miss home! There's nothing like this back in the province.

Supposed to help...


With the turmoil going on around us, the worst thing that could happens is that there are companies who remain close-fisted in helping people that are in dire need. One example is the car insurance companies who aren't going to pay people who's cars were soaked by the flood and been rendered unusable. They said that damages caused by "acts of God", including natural calamities like flood, are not covered by most insurance policies. These companies are cold-hearted. This should be the time that we should be helping each other. If only these victims of the calamity can get themselves good lawyers like those Mesothelioma lawyers who will be able to defend their case.

Oh boy! Much of the turmoil, isn't it? We're supposed to be helping one another.
