When I checked the news yesterday, only one was accounted dead because of Pablo. Then came the Compostela Valley news. I think the count was 43. Yes, 43 died because of flashfloods. :(
If I remember right, 41 000 families were evacuated yesterday. Now, I read that there were 275 families in Zamboanga alone who were evacuated. I hope Pablo will be out of the Philippines ASAP. If it wants to bother a nation, go to China.
I'm glad the death toll isn't as devastating as Ondoy's and Sendong's. But it would still be better if we were able to meet the "zero casualty" goal.
