Storms are rampaging in my country

You might have accidentally watched the news about the successive storms here. The latest is storm Nika, but the news said that after Nika, two storms are coming. I'm thankful that no storm has hit Mindanao the region where I live but the news this evening aired that Mindanao will experience a storm tomorrow, Tuesday.
I am afraid to go to work tomorrow. I hope there will be instant memo declaring for suspension of classes. The worst is yet to come.
I already charged all our power banks and the chargeable electric fans big and small. I hope the storm will shy away and won't make a land fall.
Thanks for reading sharing is caring.

These storms are chasing within the Philippine Area of Responsibility or outside. Before these disturbance, Kristine, Leon and Marce caused destruction in the Luzon area. Now Nika is currently threatening Luzon again - in the CAR - Cordillera Administrative Region.

@jobelbojel that is right, we are scared to watch the TV news. The storm is so strong. There are 28 storms to visit our country yearly.

Oh, no! Not more storms. I hope you and everyone around you is OK.
You should stay home from work if you think the storm is going to be that bad.
I hope it won't be too bad. Stay safe.

@sharonelton, thank you Sharon. We're happy here because the storm didn't make a land fall. Prayers heard. We live fronting the sea dangerous when there is storm and tsunami.

@cacay1 I'm so glad the storm didn't cause a land fall where you are. That's really good. Yes, I can imagine it would be dangerous living there. Why don't you move?
