I want this weather disturbance to leave our skies. It is not good to have rains so strong that there is a possibility we might have power outage.
However, I would not want to pray for it to go to another place, region, or city, but I just want that the Lord will keep us safe, secure, and protected from this strong rains.
Do you have concerns when it is raining heavily in your place?

oh yes, i recall you commenting on hail stones dropping there in your place. whenever we experience hail storms here, they melt after several seconds, and about the size of a 10-peso coin. not as big as how you presented in one of your comments before.

Well, the storm was indeed coming, there's nothing we can do about it.

i know, but i just wish the storm will disintegrate and become just a low pressure area, and not become a more serious typhoon.

Yes. Our Office location is prone to flood. So it really bothers us everytime weather went wrong

@aureliah yes that is true. sometimes when it is raining so hard and heavily, my sister utters,"i hope the rain will leave in a few minutes". she also has her wishful thinking.

Actually not at all unless there's a strong typhoon. We seem to not be having any power outages due to terrible weather condition for so long now and I'm not in a place where it could easily get flooded. Fortunately. So at the moment, I'm actually enjoying that heavy rain. It cools everything and makes it a perfect bed weather day. So now I'm back in my bed.

oh, that is so nice of you to enjoy the rains. i think the weather disturbance does not directly hit our region, but still the scattered downpour is reaching our place.

I've been away for a while and I see you have a new title style!
I hope you are safe in rains. Southern Japan had a very bad flood with landslides last week. Too much rain is nothing to mess around with!

oh yes. for 6 months i had just one word as the title of my discussions. after 6 months, i shifted to 2 words. on October 4, i will have the 3 word titles of my discussions.
Japan, i heard is also earthquake-prone; now, landslides too?

so, with the rains, the cold temperature also prevails, right? it is so annoying to go out and walk up-and downhill there in Baguio when it is cold and wet.
