FLASH FLOOD IN CATEEL - Beach Home Barangay Store Damaged (BecomingFilipino)

THERE WAS A FLASH FLOOD IN CATEEL...
It had been raining all day, and suddenly we got a call from Auntie Cecil... her Barangay store was flooding! Luckily everyone was okay, but it was sad seeing some homes in the Barangay and stores get damaged. After determining everyone was okay, I decided to take some footages and photos. Turns out it was good, as the Barangay and DPWH needed them...
And the guys started calling me "Bayan Patroller".
This is just another video of our lives here in Cateel, Davao Oriental, Mindanao. We love our Barangay, and appreciate everything that surrounds our beach home here.
Power On!

NOTICE - To anyone building a structure in the future. This is my advice (30 years in construction/demolition business here in the US). ALWAYS build your structure/home higher than the road IF ALL POSSIBLE, and here's why. Civil engineers working for the government HAVE to build roads above flood plain, this is by design. Gov spends millions surveying/building roads to make sure all are above flood plain during heavy rain (close flooded roads = unproductive civilians = gov losing tax revenue, since you are taxes on how much money you make/income). The gov has already spent a lot of money and time to do the research for you. Take advantage of that information by making sure to build the lowest part of your property higher than the road. Assuming the road is surveyed and built property by your gov. I recommend a MINIMUM of 1 inch for every 10 feet (measuring start from center of the public road). So, if the closest part of your house is 100 ft away from the center of the road, then the MINIMUM height should be 10 inches higher in elevation. 1 inch for every 10 ft is a bench mark of recommended fall for proper drainage of water on hard semi smooth surfaces, i.e., concrete/asphalt. Dirt and grass would require more fall. I hope this advice can help someone avoid a flooding inside their structure in the future.

My husband has told me stories about the flash floods he experienced growing up there. Mother nature is so powerful! So great that the community is such a great support to each other!

Keep rebuilding and keep going forward. It's better to have rain than drought. Mabuhay !

[@martinpeacocke8968]

The Filipino people are so strong they will get through this as they have so many times before. Two things made me happy today. You bought the wet rice and you got the marker for Chicken George. I tried to get some money to you to do this before but it didn't work out. I'm super happy you did it! It will make you smile when you see it. Cheers!

[@judithtamayo8335]

Guys! As I can remember from my childhood “TAHOP” is the by product of rice, when milling the whole dried rice grain, the tough outer layer which is called the husk or hull is separated from the starchy grain or the endosperm (the part we eat). Between the husk/hull and the endosperm is the light layer that is the bran/germ where you have the option of removing them through further milling that will just leave you with the white rice grain as the finer product. Those bran/germ provides healthier nutrients and in some milling they are kept intact as healthy alternative. The by product has so many uses as fertilizer, fuels, etc, even great for growing squash & similar vine vegetables on the ground. Just cover your ground with “tahop”. sprinkle some squash seeds then Whola! the next thing you’ll see are plenty of squash growing in your yard, no need to take care. Try it Kyle, you will be eating yellow squash everyday, It’s your favorite, right? 🙂🙂🙂

[@mariabellaano785]

I like watching your barkadas eating, laughing, working together 😀😀😀

[@imeldageneroso8369]

The place is stunning but scary when there is Typhoon and tsunami they are too close to the ocean

[@try5613]

They are facing the pacific ocean one typhoon like odette or yolanda all that houses in the beach front will be erased on map. Its sad reality but one day that typhoon will come

So sorry to see that flash flooding into that section of the barangay and hope all okay now. Always nice to see all the barkadas go out to eat, go together shopping and lovely tribute to Chicken George. 😊

[@debbieco2967]

Kulas and KD adopt the filipino trait of laughing out in any disaster happening in our country to ease out the pain😊

[@mamasuen1400]

Hi! Nice to see you again..Thanks for sharing..Positive vibes always..❤❤❤

[@benjaminlagera1369]

I think you need to plan for a more slope protection along the shore. Ask you engineer how the gabion works. I am afraid waves will eventually reach your houses. Just suggesting.

[@killersparklesj6150]

I enjoy watching you beach daily adventure. You guys will live long being there.

[@tinaraphael9783]

The jet stream has moved south since 2020. We in Luzon are getting little if any impacts from the typhoons where usually Dingalan (Aurora) was the eye of the target. Our prayers are with those in Visayas and Mindonao.

[@mikemikie8312]

Yeah sad about the flooding we brings me to the matter of the ocean where your house is ,that ocean is getting rather close be careful because it might flood your place I think your have to build a wall to stop the ocean

[@enigma5014]

yeah a wall compare to sand bags

or both much better

[@HeyVernTravels]

Sorry about your friends. Water can be a dangerous element and it usually happens so fast...

[@g.a.mendoza1064]

Now you know why it’s not a good investment to build a home along the shorelines especially in the Philippines. It’s spectacular on a good day but hell during the typhoon season. Usually, here in the states it’s actually the secondary or tertiary home but there, it’s mostly their ONLY home. I admire their resilience.

[@noexcuses5524]

You can say the same thing to houses that were being flooded even though they live so far in the ocean

[@Cicadawee]

Need for the LGU to look into the development of that area by putting some water breaks or erosion devices on the shore.

Hi Kulas, chickens, ducks & birds peck on the ground to swallow tiny stones that stays in their gizzard. These then helps in grinding down and digesting their food.
