A heavy downpour flooded Davao City especially its main spine like Claveria and Acacia Street where number of students and passengers taking Claveria-Bajada route are stranded in Claveria.
Roads are temporarily inaccessible while the water level is rising.

Other parts of Davao City are also heavily flooded like in R.Castillo, Obrero, and in Matina.

Rants about the poor drainage system of the city are also flooding on facebook and twitter.

Atenews of ADDU tweeted that the water level has reached the school's Finster Basement.

As of this writing, the rain has stopped and the flood is subsiding while numbers of dabawenyos are still on the street. Wild and wet.

Flood is one of the longest problems of the 'City of Life'.
