Sendong

I have started a blog series related to Typhoon Sendong.

typhoon warnings: switching from wind to rain. Here I propose the importance of weather forecast that is based on rainfall not on winds like PAGASA is doing.
topography of flashfloods. I tried to illustrate how topography influence behavior of water flow that can cause flashfloods. I used the Cagayan de Oro and Davao flashfloods as cases
using rainfall to save yourself from flooding. I have illustrated a possible alternative in using  rainfall forecast to predict possible flooding in a locality without expensive flood warning system

Coming up: after the floods, now what?
