It's raining buckets literally here in Makati. In fact i lighting just strike a buildings pole as of this writing. Visibility is poor in fact I can only white just a few meters from where i'm right now. I'm sure there's going to be traffic if this continues for a couple minutes more. Since it's only 3PM, there's still enough time for the flood to subside before 6PM . But i'm not worried about the flood, i'm more worried about the internet connection because I use globe, if it rains chances are it's going off line.

Hi, ybong. It also rained here in cebu and just like you, I'm a globe user. Experiencing the same problem you have whenever it rains. LOL. Maybe next year i'll transfer to PLDT when this contract expires. I hope everything is well with you. Because of the Sun-Rain-Sun-Rain weather, I have colds now. LOL

It's funny since I'm expecting globe to go off line. I'm a it surprised because I just found out this morning that our PLDT internet is down and here I am still able to post here using globe's internet. Sorry to hear about your cold. what your need is kisspirin or yakapsure. yesterday seemed to be a bad day for us, first the rains that caused some flooding and an intensity 2 earthquake afterwards.

We also experiencing Heavy rains here in Baguio City specially 1 PM onwards. It pours heavy drops of water and many people are crumbling where to find a suitable place to hang around until the rain stops. Traffic is also heavy here.

it seems it's raining every where in the Philippines. I think traffic is something that we all have to endure. Lets just hope that it won't be that much just like what happened to other places where people are trapped in waist high flood.

I also hope the rain stops. Because if the rains continue to fall. Very dangerous. Where I live, there is an erupting volcano, if the rain continued to fall, will result in a cold lava flood, and very dangerous. If I can stop the rain.

Volcano ash fall plus rain equals Lahar. It's very dangerous indeed. I can still recall when Mt Pinatubo erupted in the 1990's and the lahar caused entire towns to be buried in mud. When the mud dries, it's as hard as cement.

I am from Cebu and it's also raining like crazy here. However, the traffic and flood isn't as bad as Manila. I have globelines as well and all I can say is it sucks! Bigtime! I really hate it. It usually stops working when it rains and the connection is very intermittent. I'm really planning to switch back to PLDT.

I speak the language but I had been to cebu only once and that's because the airplane i'm in was forced to land in Mactan due to of bad weather. I think it's as busy as manila but not as congested as far as traffic is concerned. I went out of the office and a normal 15 minute ride without traffic became a 2 hour drive.
