typhoon’juaning’

It's really sad that people have to learn the hard way. PAGASA may predict the course of a typhoon but still it's just nothing but predictions. It's OK with the olden days before global warming because when PAGASA says there's a typhoon it's just heavy rains and gust of winds where people may lost their roofs or crops but their house would still remain standing, it's now different nowadays. A warmer earth means more water evaporation and as they say what comes up must come down, the heavier it flies the harder it falls. We just have to face the reality that global warning is here and there's nothing we can do but adapt to it. Although I believe that state of the art equipment can help prevent the loss of lives but that is not the solution to the problem. It should be a concerted effort to bring the earth's temperature down. Let's plant some trees. Simple isn't it? but the problem is we no longer have lands to plant trees on. It's either owned by your neighbor or SM so let's just pray na lang.

I've been wishing for so long about this too. The government should focus on providing better, newer and more accurate equipments to PAGASA. We encounter typhoons every year and the said equipments won't be wasted because it is essential for our country. Natural calamity is no joke and wrong information could cause dilemma to anybody.

That's the problem with the weather equipments and machines that PAGASA is using. It can only forecast the weather signal but the rain signal. Let's face it there are typhoon with higher signal but lesser rains. What pisses people is that there were forecasts that says signal no. 1 and yet the rains that goes with it can drown the whole city down. Another problem is the drainage system, which is most of the time the cause of the floodings.

Wow, that must have been devastating, but I am definitely glad to hear you are okay. Unfortunately most of these storms can be unpredictable, the weather forecasts them a certain way and when they make land fall they can be a total surprise. That is why personally I always try to make the proper precautions, because I don't trust what the news tells me and/or what is forecasted.

Heheh, PNoy I think is busy digging someones dirt in the palace, rather than, minding present businesses, For me he should not give more time on looking for someone's flaws from the past because wether he liked it or not, all the billions can never be taken back,

oh well, there's nothing we could do on that. will just accept the fact that we are lack of equipment's here in the Philippines.
