saw it on the news but didnt understand it much for my son wanted something that he pulled me near the fridge that i missed something very important. so i decided to look it up on the net. if you are residing at Quezon City, Maynila, Makati, Muntinlupa and Caloocan City then you are going to be affected by water interruption. i am from marikina but i am sure that water will be affected here as well. here is the link that i saw on the net http://www.bomboradyo.com/newsdetails1.asp?ID=133706
hope this was a big help for everybody to be aware.

Hi 7th,
i was in the office too and was not able to watch the news today. this link is truly helpful. we can save enough water just in case this will push through. anyway, this is not a new thing to us. we are used to this and we know what to do in cases like this. what is important is we are warned and given time to prepare. no surprises!

yes i guess this kind of things are popular already in some areas in metro manila. some houses are already ready a few months ago in case of water interruption. we from marikina will not be affected though we are affected by the brown out rotation and the sad part some people from marikina has no water supply when the electricity is out. thanks a lot for the response

Yeah I heard the news too. Fortunately, I am not in those areas. I am luckily in San Juan and so far I have not experience anything from low pressure or anything to that effect. I have lived here for a couple of years and never did I experience water interruption at all. Pressure is consistently strong and it could even go up to our second floor.

thank you for the response and yes i am not from that area too. i am from marikina and never experience any water interruption before. i hope we will not get affected but we still prepared for it. it is better to prepare than to be caught unaware. have a good evening.
