UERM, Sta. Mesa, Manila - Typhoon OndoyYou’ve probably seen that moving video of a woman on the roof of her car during the flood in UERM, Sta. Mesa Manila.

Less-talked about, however, is the man on the same video hanging onto a coconut tree while the cars around him swirl and get drowned.
And there’s one gripping photo of what seems to be a dead body of a woman in Marikina still lying on the street a day after the typhoon hit their area.
These are just some of the unfortunate stories brought by Typhoon Ondoy which devastated parts of Metro Manila, particularly, Marikina, Pasig, and Rizal.
Some more photos of the Ondoy (international name: Ketsana) in the link below.
