He talks and shows the islands. There are three main islands. Luzon is the north with Manila, Visayas is the middle with Tim, and Mindanao is in the south.

Hang in there is right. Hope you and your family will be okay. Hope the damage will be minimal, but it sure looks like a bad storm.

Thoughts and prayers.

He may have. It's probably going to be some time before we hear from him.

I would imagine it will be quite a while before they get electricity back.

He has the numbers of a few people on here and will likely reach out to someone as soon as possible.

I pray that this one is not as bad as it looks.

There is no storm center. What they do is hole up in a school, a church or maybe even a community basketball court. Yes, a basketball court. See what I mean by no defense.

Sending Tim and his family and friends lots of prayers.
My God, the satellite shows that the eye will pass right over Bantayan
I can't even imagine, and I've been in many storms including Andrew in S. Florida and Katrina here.

Prayers, prayers and more prayers for their safety.

I really meant what they referred to as a reinforced building, as you say, a church, or something with a sturdy foundation. Fingers crossed.
