The weather patterns can change very fast here. It's one of things I like about Cebu, but when you mix in a few typhoons, well... I was talking to an artist at the Visayas Art Fair yesterday, and I asked him where he lived. He replied "I have two homes." His main home, south of where we live in here in Cebu City, has water up to... (he gestured to his upper body). He's staying somewhere else right now. There are lots of sad stories about Typhoon Tino on 2Nov here in the Visayas, and here on Cebu Island. We moved to a hotel nearby before Typhoon Fung-Wong hit on 9Nov, but it ended up tracking farther north, over Luzon. That's the larger island where Manila is located. These photos show how Fung-Wong played with the weather down here even when it was so far north. The first shot is from our place looking NNW several hours before we moved to the hotel with it's SSE view. The clouds in the 4th shot almost look like a watercolor touchup or something. I might have used my telephoto lens for that one. The last shot shows clouds masking the port area, the water and Mactan Island on one of our mornings there.
