The town is a bit busy today a lot of people and vehicle in the street unlike the previous day it is almost like a ghost town, maybe because people were not able to go out in two days because of the strong wind brought by the typhoon. There is a long line in front of the ATM in town, there is only one bank with working ATM today because the other machines  in two other banks are offline.

Anyway by watching television news tonight I have found out that the typhoon which made the fourth landfall in Romblon severely affected other municipalities in our province, some houses were left without roofs while the other houses are totally wrecked especially those houses near the shore, a ferry went ashore as well. There still no network signal or power supply in other municipalities, there is also casualties in our province because of the typhoon, our town is a bit lucky for not able to experience the wrath of typhoon Nona because as what I have heard a state of calamity was declare in one municipality.

Typhoon is normal occurrence in the Philippines so a new typhoon came over to visit last night and leave some damage to other provinces after a storm surge take place. Anyway, our province was on signal number 3 but gladly the storm didn’t make a havoc, it only passed by with strong wind and rain, resulting to blackout.

When we wake up, it was flooding outside since the irrigation overflow but the water subsided over time. When the rain stops for a bit I went with my younger sister to deliver something, I initially don’t want to go since I just sat in front of my laptop since the electricity just returned but thinking that the river is overflowing and my sister might drowned I stopped my task and went with her.

The river which is initially dried up is overflowing with water and since the current is very strong at the other end of the river we are not able to cross to the other side. We are on signal number 2 tonight, hopefully no more strong winds.
