From Fire Tornado to Volcanic Lightning.

Tweet

My daughter woke me up last night, to ask if I was tuning in to the news. "Why?," I asked as I struggled to open my eyes. She then alerted me about Taal Volcano spewing ash. "Oh, that? Yes, I know," I responded. "Have you taken the necessary precautions? Have you masks? Water? Food? Are your windows already closed?" A rapid fire interrogation. Answered in the affirmative as my head was trying to keep up. "Then go cover Buzz." That's my old car. I didn't argue any longer. Legs wobbly, I pulled out an old bed sheet and made my way to the garage. Gosh it was dark. Then I made a cup of coffee and turned the internet on for the news. The reports were feeding panic mode for face masks, an exodus back to Manila, mandatory evacuation, etcetera. I whispered a prayer. My daughter did agree with me when Australia burned that we really are in the age of Tribulation. I told her that I didn't think the Philippines will have our share of a major disaster, for we have been having earthquakes and super typhoons already. Apparently, I was wrong. The phenomenal occurrences have given us new terminologies such as fire tornado in Australia and volcanic lightning right here in my supposedly comfort zone. Watch the video for the seemingly wondrous lightnings. Oh, by the way, I spent my whole morning getting rid of the ash that had fallen on my abode.
