Due to climate change, the Philippines is expecting La Niña until late March, bringing cooler temperatures and much-needed rainfall. While this means more rainy days, it also helps replenish water supplies and nourish farmlands. Some areas may experience heavier showers, so a little extra preparation can go a long way in staying safe and comfortable.
Fix leaks and clean roof gutters regularly ⛈️🏡
Frequent rain showers are expected during La Niña, so it’s a great time to check your rain gutters! Clearing out leaves and debris helps prevent clogs and overflows when the downpours come. And don’t forget to check for leaks because what seems like nothing in the summer can turn into a big problem when the rain starts pouring. A little prep now means a smoother and worry free rainy season ahead!
Monitor humidity 💧
Let the airflow when it’s not raining! Good ventilation helps prevent mold from forming on walls and furniture. Excess humidity can also damage wood, causing it to crack, warp, or split. One easy tip is to open your windows and let fresh air work its magic!
Keep your appliances safe 🔌
Power outages are pretty common here during thunderstorms, so it’s a good idea to unplug appliances, especially computers, to keep them safe from power surges. For extra protection, a UPS is a smart investment for sensitive devices! ⚡

Weatherproof laundry days 👕👖
That kulob smell can be a struggle during the rainy season! With the weather being so unpredictable, drying laundry outside isn’t always possible. Hanging them in the shade helps, but indoor humidity can make it take longer. A washer and dryer in one can make things so much easier!
