President Rodrigo Duterte Inspected Flooded areas in Metro Manila During Habagat
President Rodrigo Duterte did an aerial inspection on flooded areas in Metro Manila on a Helicopter last August 15. The flood was caused by heavy rains. Manila was also hit by a tornado which added to the suffering of the residents in the affected area.
The previous President Noynoy Aquino was hounded with criticism since he seems to be always nowhere to be found when there is flooding or typhoon. Like when Tropical Storm “Maring” battered Metro Manila with and the rest of Luzon with heavy rains and caused massive flooding.

14th cyclone develops near Surigao, named 'Nando'
MANILA, Philippines - The low pressure area near Surigao del Norte in Mindanao has intensified into a tropical depression and has been named "Nando," the state weather bureau said Sunday.
The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said that as of 10 a.m., the center of the tropical cyclone was estimated at 290 kilometers east of Borongan City.
"Nando" is the 14th cyclone to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility this year and the fourth this August. The weather bureau expects at least five cyclones to hit the country this month.
It was packing maximum sustained winds of 45 kilometers per hour and was moving north northwest at a speed of 13 kph.
PAGASA said the cyclone will move up to Bicol area, particularly 270 kilometers east of Virac in Catanduanes by Monday morning and move near Aurora province by Tuesday.
The estimated rainfall amount within the cyclone's 300 kilometer diameter was five to 15 millimeters per hour or moderate to heavy.
