How to check if the area you're in is flood prone
« on: June 08, 2010, 12:26:33 am »
Hi mga sis,

I got this website from twitter called http://nababaha.com/ and it can tell you if you live in a flood prone area and show areas that you should avoid due to high flood possibilities.  Super helpful especially now that the rainy season is near na!
Right where I wanna be!

Share ko lang as of 2AM, flooded po ang following area:
- c5 (near Hypermart)
- Sta Mesa
- UST
- Tayuman, Manila
- Vito Cruz
- EDSA Pasay

Try to avoid these routes at all cost! Be safe!

medyo mahirap kasi, some areas na hindi naman binabaha, binaha nung ondoy and habagat... I guess agree din ako kay crayzee na lets help one another by stating it here kung saan yung baha tapos compile na lang para informed ang lahat kung saan abg baha

talayan village sabi ng friend ko umaabot sa 2nd floor nila
sa may tomas morato, infron of mang inasal ata mataas din flood, not sure kung how high nga lang
sa timog infront of causeway near burger king.. mataas din baha dun
araneta infront of so-en mataas din baha dun

Thanks for the info. It's a big help although our place was not flooded during Ondoy and the previous habagat but the roads that leads to and from our house was flooded, we're kinda stranded before. This info can help us. Thanks.

lack of trees, poor drainage system, poor refuse disposal and shabby streets/roads all contribute to floods

check mo yung 2 to 3 street before and after ng street mo (parallel and perpendicular to the street) kung mataas sila or mas mababa.
