Monday, 8 AM Philippine time (1 AM Ireland time) I called Ireland support. I was asking information regarding status of the center before the powerful hurricane hits the area. The technician asked me where I was calling from. I said I am based in the Philippines. After telling him to stay safe, he said with enthusiasm "thank you for your call from the Philippines. He also told my colleague to pray for them.

Hurricane Ophelia did a number of Ireland and Britain. Things aren't the same with climate change. When will we realize that?

A very kind gesture, there are many places without power right now in Ireland.

I haven't watched the news or read online news about the storm. I pray they are safe and sound.

@jobelbojel I think it's over, let's hope not to see more hurricanes and tornadoes.
