Our weather here in the Philippines is just crazy. Like, right now it's perfectly sunny and the next week it'll rain like crazy. Is it okay to go in a trip to the mountain (BAGUIO)?

Traveling long distance on a car during heavy rain is always unsafe but it depends on the driver. But the risk of having an accident is higher. But usually i don't really think about the bad things that could happen on the road since i always go out of town every weekend. The more you think of the danger the more likely it's gonna happen. Now if you are having doubts, better stay at home.

For me no! That's not okay. The storm is coming.We'll not know if that storm is heavy or not.We must keep ourself safety. The trip will be continued at the other days. We re scheduled it because of that storm.

If there is an electrical storm it wouldn't be smart to be in the mountains very high. Vacations are great but not if it means taking a chance that could endanger family members. Sometimes staying home and doing something special is just as good as taking off on a vacation out of town or local.

That would be asking for trouble, wouldn't it? Better to be safe. I know that sometimes it is very hard to predict the weather but we should always check with the weather report and take precautions when necessary.

My advice would be always listen to the weather reports and don't risk going against them.

when the weather is very nice and cold is preferably in the snow fog and rain. I love to go but when the weather is favorable and enjoy nature. but not winter. Have a nice day!

I would say no. My friend is a meteorologist and I just asked him on his opinion and he said don't risk it. It could be dangerous for you. Try and rearange your trip for another, safer time. Sorry x
