I'm home cause we have no work as we are among the areas in Northern Mindanao with warning signal no. 3. The worst thing is that we have no electricity as of now. Hope it will be back soon. Those who can read this please pray to God that there will be no casualties during this calamity. Thanks.

Hi!
I know it's not the right time to greet and all..so sorry. I hope all you guys will be safe and on harm will be caused to you. Please take care of yourself and your loved ones. Let's all pray for each other well beings. Stay calm friends. I know it is easy to say rather than do, and i admit i would be more frightful if i was in your place. Sorry for that.

i think we could already consider it as one based on the latest report for today. Lost of lives are over a hundred already, many are missing, houses and agricultural crops were destroyed by flood and strong winds and some communities are not accessible. A bleak Christmas for our brothers who suffered storm pablo's wrath.

Yes it is. Last night I saw one of the damages that was featured on tv, the vast banana plantation that was damaged. It is a pity for those small banana growers and the company itself. They were all affected by the typhoon. Hope the government will see to it that these people will be given financial aid for them to spend for their re-planting and other expenses.

Good thing you were still able to post this despite the power outage. Anyway, I am from Cebu and I too am praying that the typhoon will not cause too much causalities and that all of us will be safe. I am really thankful that the typhoon did not hit us here even though the first news said it will pass us. God must have really heard our prayers and did not let the typhoon hit us here nor do I hear so much of the causality. Keep safe!

Yes I had posted it before the battery of my computer went out. We're now back to normal. Yes God really heard our prayers, the rains stopped though there were strong winds our rivers did not flow. You know there is a river across the road from my house.

As of 7pm eye of typhoon was located west of Dumaguete City and had somehow weakened. But it is sad to note that there were already reported casualties and and unknown fate yet of some volunteer soldiers whose vehicle was swept by raging flood waters. Let's just pray that these figures will not add up as the storm lashes its fury and hope that it will leave our country with no great damage to lives and properties.

Thank God typhoon Pablo left Misamis oriental where we are yesterday afternoon. The strongest storm I've witnessed my whole life! The electricity came back on last night. I am so thankful to God no one was hurt.

As far as I know, there are no casualties and the authorities and rhapsody some of the citizens are now voluntary evacuating instead of being forced down. This is good since at least, nobody will claim blame after this. Let us hope this passes on.

Well, there is nothing worse than being in the center of a natural disaster such as Typhoon Pablo that has rumored to be quite destructive. I hope that no casualties at all would be reported and would be the results of this typhoon. Electricity can be down due to some wiring being damaged by the storm or the authority cut the power off in order to prevent accident such as fire and other similar things. I am sure that the electricity will be back when the typhoon is over. Be safe.

Hi Pahak.
We are on the upper part that is why we are not directly affected by this typhoon but I am praying since yesterday that Pablo will go out of the country soon. I don't want any body to suffer anymore. I know we have been into a lot of things already.
Yesterday, we had our DRRM emergency meeting and we talked about this coming typhoon for us to be prepared especially the barangay levels. I really hope that the typhoon will not bring any damage.
