Yesterday was non-stop raining. / myLot

Yesterday, it was raining cats and dogs. It never stopped. It kept raining I thought we would have a brownout and flooding, but thank God these things did not happen. The power was cut off just for 30 minutes and came on again. There's still a drizzle today but not as much. But my fellow countrymen in the Mindanao and Visayas region are getting the brunt of the storm. Flooding in many areas occurred and some lives were lost and properties were damaged. The government is doing everything in its power to send aid and help to them. I heard also in the news about what happened in South Korea and India. My prayers go to them all and my country. This is sad news but I'm sure everything will get better soon as the storm is finally leaving. I hope all is well in your country and let's pray for all those who need it. What are your thoughts on these events? How can we prevent these from happening again? Do share them with us.

I'm so sorry for all the damage and loss of lives. I don't know anything we can do about it.

It rains here today, but it's a gentle rain, not too heavy and we need rain. I hope your weather will get better soon.

Yes, it got better, the typhoon has left us and it's only cloudy now and occasional drizzles but not as heavy.

It's hard to prevent natural disasters. As for what happened in India and South Korea, better planning would help. They should have tested the bridge before allowing people to cross. My opinion. They might have tested it, I don't know. It's tragic. I don't know the full story of what happened in South Korea. It's sad so many lives have been lost.

Yes, it's really sad as most of them were young people just enjoying their youth.
