Getting a heavy rain here about once twice a week now.. My bowling lawn and grass tennis court are definitely making a comeback..
Periods of heavy rain daily in Pangasinan now. Knew we should have started the extension to the house earlier.
We just finished tearing off and replacing our 12 year old nipa roof off just in time! Tin roof this time though so I might need a few new A/C`s to compensate.
You'll cook! If you have loft space, I'd suggest you pile (Hessian) sacks of rice hulls three high for the entire area, ensuring that there is free air-flow across the top of them. Rice hulls make good insulation and are relatively inert - they don't spontaneously combust and are actually quite difficult to set alight.
