Davao City today experienced heavy rainfall and floods

Today is the first day of school for my daughter Keisha Nicole. I woke up early in the morning to prepare all the stuff for her first day of school. She was excited to attend because she will be meeting again her best friends Regine Guillermo also a kindergarten student. When we were on our way to school i have noticed that the city streets are very traffic were cars were making different routes just to avoid heavy traffics. i immediately opened the radio hoping that I could get some information about what's going on. ABS-CBN reports that Davao city is experiencing heavy floods all over the city. This is my first time to experienced this kind of flood since I was born. I was here in Davao City for 35 years and there was no flood like this before that results to a chaotic flow of traffic. The honorable mayor of the city Rodrigo Roa Duterte declares the suspension of all classes both public and private schools. I have seen a lot of motorcycle riders and some small vehicles got stock along the road due to engine malfunction. People from the government of Davao are also looking for some remedy. They were deployed by the city government of Davao to clean some of the clogged canals and manholes. they were digging it and some personnel's are using heavy equipments such as backhoe for drainage cleaning. As I have heard over the radio over ABS-CBN reports, this is a result of the global warming were some thick part of solid ice in the north cap of the world were melted and turned into liquid that will produce more volume of water throughout Asia and some places. the video above will show how flood takes over the city of Davao.
