Mario bothers: Images of flooding due to last Friday's tropical storm
It began raining Thursday night. It never stopped, pouring steadily until Friday. By the time tropical storm Mario had relented in Metro Manila, floodwaters were waist-deep and cars were submerged. Some say the floods this weekend were worse in some areas compared to 2009 when Ondoy hit and last year when Maring passed by.
As usual, social media was likewise deluged with photos of inundated areas in NCR. We received dozens of them, although we had to carefully sort through the snapshots as some people sent old flooding pictures from previous typhoons. Some images weren't even taken in the Philippines.
Anyway, here are some of the photos that made their way to our mailbox. We hope you, your family and your car are all safe and dry.
