Typhoon Megi (Juan) Heading For North Philippines

[Art2ro]

I don't like the looks of it! Scary! I just hope it's not a major calamity! How much more can people put up with this kind of disaster? I wonder if my flight back to the Philippines next month will get canceled if the control tower is damaged by the hurricane or will the roads be passable getting home from the airport? I guess we just have to wait it out!

Super typhoon "Juan" (Megi) may have crippled as much as 90 percent of communications facilities in Isabela and Cagayan provinces, the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) said on Monday.NTC spokesman Paolo Arceo cited reports from telecom firms as of 2:30 p.m. indicating it may take as many as five days to restore the communication facilities."Medyo masama, hard hit ang areas na ito, they are pegging it at 90 percent damage so mahirap makipag-communicate sa areas na ito as of this time," he said in an interview on dzBB radio.

I hope your flight next month will not be cancelled - or delayed. I also hope that my close friends whom I consider my family and all others who are in it's path are not killed or lose everything, or what little they have managed to accumulate since Ondoy last September.
