Habagat... Until when?

Waking up this morning, i heard no more rain and thought today will be the start of a good weather.  After several minutes, the rain started to fall hard on our roof again, then suddenly will stop and will start all over again.  This is the 3rd day that we are experiencing heavy down pour attributed by the habagat caused by the typoon maring.  Everywhere in Metro Manila and nearby provinces were flooded and thousands of families were affected.  I'm not really sure if they are able to go back to their houses yet because the weather is still so unpredictable.  

Yesterday, our area was not exempted to flooding, the streets were almost knee deep, good thing our house is kind of elevated.  Some of our neighbors houses however were flooded and needed to raise their things to an elevated area.  When the water subsided, they had no choice but to clean the remnants of the flood. 


Walang mahirap o mayaman, everywhere was flooded.  This was Paseo de Magallanes and their expensive subdivision.  The flood was waste deep.  I wonder if our office was flooded too, sana hindi...


Thankfully, the Typhoon Maring already left the Philippines area of responsibility but we will continue to feel the habagat especially in the western section of Luzon.  We will still continue have light to medium rain but not as severe as the previous days.  Tomorrow, we can expect a better weather.  Yehey!
