Monsoons

Lately, we have experienced too much rains that caused flood.

To some, it is beneficial for it will provide water to dry croplands but to many, it is a burden. The heavy rain that we are experiencing lately is because of what we know as the Southwest Monsoon or locally known as "Habagat". And there is Amihan, the counter part of Habagat which brings cold winds from the Siberia and normally, it is experienced in Christmas days. But, let me focus to Habagat.

From articles and forecasts, I have known that it, affects the country from July to September, is very warm and humid, occurs when warm moist air flows over the country from the southwest direction, is characterized by heavy rainfall that may last for a week. It brings the rainy season to the western portion of the country. 

I want to know how the Filipinos respond to this. For 50 years, this was the firs time that it brought 470,000 L of rain in around 22 hours only which was more compared to what Typhoon Ondoy brought us. I would also like to research on the new gadgets and methods to alleviate these effects if possible or minimize them at least.

I would like to appreciate the fact that these people, who are affected, still have the courage to smile despite of the hardships they have been through. 


As a youth, I could apply my learning everyday to help in saving our nature and not to help global warming in killing Mother Earth. Let's do our own simple ways!
