I think the brown out was caused of the rains last night. I don't think that the rains were that strong though. But the brown out started about 12 midnight. I thought it was going to be a short one but I was waiting for the electricity to get back till I fell asleep. I woke up at 5 am and the electricity was back already. I think it was by 4 am according to my sister. Anyway it was the longest brown out we had since the last two years.

Yeah me too, I was surfing online and didn't notice that electricity was out, until such time when the videos I was watching had error messages flagged on my screen. I got so scared last night, the wind was really strong I thought it's gonna do a lot of damage the next day. Thank God this typhoon isn't going to spread havoc like Ondoy did. I will never want to experience that again, stranded with no electricity for three days.

We also had a power interruption in our area last night; we have heavy rains and the wind gust is so strong. And I can't even begin to tell that I'm such a scaredy cat and darkness is one of those I fear the most. So I was in my room all alone when the lights went out. I screamed trying to get out calling my kid bro and sis only for the power to come back on after 3 minutes. So awkward lol!
