The lakewaters has breached the seawall due to heavy rains lately; it is going to be a wet fiesta

Ang Uno sa Lahat

Rizal Philippines
November 12, 2017



There has been a lot of rains lately-  several LPA that became typhoons visited the country lately dumping million tons of rain water.  The lake suddenly rose in level.  Last week, the waters were still behind the sea walls.  Now the waters have covered portion of the pathwalk of the Angono Eco Park.

It is going to be a very wet and exciting fiesta on November 23, 2017.  Wet and muddy.  Plenty of mudslinging (just like we do in elections!) Hahaha

                                    Umabante na dagat, lubog na base ng zipline tower


                                              Pumasok na sa park daungan ng bangka


                                         Baha na ang lugar ng restaurant;   no more lugaw at kape



   Di kaya sayang ang cap ex ng munisipyo pag binabaha ang mga infrastructura nito.  A much better seawall protection has to be built

The rains from typhoon Maring continue, the river banks are not inundated but the Lakeside park is!

Angono - ang UNO

                                    This used to be a road.  It about under l/2 foot of water.

The rains since August 18, 2013 from typhoon Maring has left 70% of MM under water and majority of areas declared under state of emergency:    Taytay, San Mateo Rizal, all of the province of Laguna, Tarlac, Pampanga, portion of Bataan, Bulacan;   I heard water of Felix (Imelda Avenue) in Cainta Rizal is waist deep.

The mayor of this town claimed that after a massive river excavation, and its river mouth and near the Lakeside park, the carrying capacity of the waterway has been greatly increased.  Only the Lake need to be dredged or needs to be drained as was suggested by Gov. Ejercito of Laguna.   The current design of the floodway and Laguna Lake, he said is obsolete and is more of a bane to current coastal towns.

True enough in Angono, only the Lakeside park is underwater.  The river did not swell as before.  And Bagumbayan did not go underwater, as was in the past.  (Thank you Mayor;  you even studied hydraulics to have this done)

                             The statue is now lonely amidst the water; but at home as a mermaid?


                              It will take 3 months for water to drain from the the lake?

                                  The river is not so swollen at 10 am today




                                  No floods at Bagumbayan

The skies at Ortigas looked clear this morning; did the typhoon blow the pollution away?

 On a clear day, you even see their signs from here?

Here is the view of Ortigas CBD from SM Taytay;  the skies looked clearer.  Did the typhoon winds blow the dirty air away?
