Me and my family personally experienced it's devastating force as it passed by out town, trees are plucked from the ground, part of our roof got blown-off by the force of the wind, and water came in and flooded part of our house. But compared to other places I can say that what we have experienced is still not that bad, and I thank God for that.
According to the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) as of 6 p.m. today, "Ondoy" had caused 73 fatalities.
According to Situation Report No. 7, 44 people died in Region IV-A: one in Calaca, Batangas; one in Calauag, Quezon; 23 in Tanay, Rizal; 10 in Angono, five in Baras; three in Montalban and one in Theresa, all in Rizal province.
Seven People were killed in the National Capital Region - three in Muntinlupa City, two in NIA Road, Quezon City; one in Marikina City, and 1 in Brgy. Bato, San Juan.
Twenty-one died in Region III: nine in Bulacan and 12 in Arayat, Pampanga. In the Cordillera Administrative Region, one was killed in Kabugao, Apayao.
Among the fatalities were a soldier and four volunteers from the Civilian Armed Forces Geographical Unit who took part in the search and rescue efforts for the storm's victims.
The number of affected families across Luzon has swelled to 69,513 (about 337,216 people). The partial total number of evacuees has also reached 11,967 families (about 59,920 people) who are staying in 118 evacuation centers, NDCC data showed.
Twenty-three others were reported missing: 20 in Tanay, Rizal; two in Arayat, Pampanga, and one in Kabayan, Benguet. Four were injured: three in Kabayan, Benguet, and one in Sta. Cruz, Laguna.
The NDCC's official tally, however, did not include the 36 fatalities and 100 other missing according to the Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) of San Isidro Church in Barangay Bagong Silangan in Quezon City.
Indeed nobody is excempted in Ondoy's destructive force, even celebrities were not exempted with the disasters caused by the tropical storm. Christine Reyes, Jean Garcia and her daughter Jenica Garcia, Kaye Brosas, Silvia Sanchez and Gladys Reyes are among the local celebrities that got stranded and asked help, when their houses were submerged in the flood caused by the heavy rain brought by Ondoy.
Today efforts are being given by everybody to help in their own way, those who are most affected by the tropical storm "Ondoy". T.V Networks and other organizations are gathering donations to help those in need, even the cyberspace are flooded with call for help. If you are interested in helping or donating here is a list where you may send your donation for those affected by "Ondoy."
