Update:

8:40pm Philippine Time as of this post.

We started to get a little wind maybe 10 to 15mph and it has been raining moderate for the past 45 min or so, then,
just a few minutes ago everything stopped.

No rain and no wind just a deathly quiet.

We still have a few hours before the nasty part starts to hit.

no reports from the south palau islands yet so we cannot confirm the intensity of the system around the eyewall, its still rated as a category 5 typhoon, your not going to survive this unless you make sure you move to the strongest parts of your house away from the side of the strongest winds

you need to tell those around you how strong this thing is really going to be ,that is going to be stronger than what you execpt by a long way especially if you get anywhere near the eye

and also the eye does not mean the cyclone is over but may give you time to seek better shelter if you need it

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1791640


your going to still be near the devastation when this unfolds
tree hundreds of kilometers inland will be damaged severely Davao will be just south of a large disaster area

a line of destruction where the eye core travels will cross over the island and severely damage transport communications and power connecting a large area

Ha Ha,

This is the Philippines. No gov is going to come and save. They have so little resources, they can barely keep their workers paid enough to have three meals a day.

and you know this and don't have at least a few months worth of staples stashed away ?

you are a democrat I suspect
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28871789



Not everyone in this world is paranoid enough to have "a few months worth of staples stashed away".


That's a thing for paranoids.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13258813


Been without power and or snowed in for 21 days + 4 times in my life.

Had accidents at work and had severely reduced income twice as well for months.

Been laid off and again severely reduced income .

With inflation over the last few years , have saved thousands in food costs , buying longterm staple food items.

So yeah call me paranoid if you like , people like you are the reason I pick up insecticides at flea markets . You may get my stash , however there will be some shall we say curious surprises in it , for vermin who are unprepared zombie sheep parasites. So fuck you very much and have a nice day

Yea, were getting ready here. We are right in the path in NE Mindanao, We are inland so we have mountains for some protection. We are also in the farm/jungle area.
Last year the one that came through did a lot of damage.

Palau island will be getting destroyed as we speak though may have escaped the worst of it just. With the eyewall crossing just to the South.

Palau will be experiencing a gigantic 40ft storm surge plus 200km/hr winds.

Update:

Still deadly calm here. No rain, no wind.

Looks like the Typhoon has compressed. Not good. Looks stronger now.

Folks in mid to northern Davao, up to Bislig should be feeling the outer bands. Looks like the storm eye will just brush our area slightly south, but we will see.

11:00pm local time as of this post.

yes it will impact your area very severly tonight and well into the morning its also accelerating west so the eye should pass just south of your area

you will be north of the destructive line meaning you could be very isolated in the next few days

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21937622


Yes. Thanks again for the info. lol on the isolation. I have been here for 6 years in this tiny farming area, so isolation has become normal life. Luckily we really don't need any outside help. If the roads North and south of us disappeared it would be ok, as we rarely ever use them and don't rely on them for supplies.
The coastal areas are screwed. They tried to evac, but, sadly, I think there will be many lost, mainly cause there's no good emergency broadcast system like the west has. So many will be surprised.

Our prayers go out to all in the path.
