Typhoon Neneng?
I’m assuming that this is typhoon Neneng.

I woke up with the wind a bit strong with light showers getting blown into the room. So I checked the weather immediately.

I’m not going to underestimate again. It’s a bad excuse that we’re used to hopeless predictions by PAGASA. Also, we’re so used to strong typhoons happening every year, it’s just like a drizzle and we’re back up the next day.
