That means even one has to be very careful even with jet skis.

My wife's parents hse gone 1 floor deep!!! But honestly, this time around, we don't even realize it until my mom called from membakut asking whether our house kena or not. Funny, they dont even mention membakut banjir or not. I know they're safe even when the previous worst case scenario during the Greg. The water only reach my parents house ground floor at only 5 inches high. Thank GOD for that. Our hse at Nosoob safe from all this. Sorry to hear about yer house though. really.

Fortunately, many years of living here has given me a pretty good idea of what to expect and what to do if the worst strikes.

The water came up fast and as soon as the rain stop it will go fast also.. Like chipsmore... Maybe that's why most of the home in penampang have tiang.
