Rainy season in the Philippines only gets worse by the year. It’s always the same tale, year-in, year-out: A constant cycle of horrible weather, downpours, flooding, and heavy traffic. But do you know what else has never changed? How Pinoys deal with baha, typhoons, and the gloom. In fact, we’ve perfected dealing with it so much that nothing can phase us anymore — not even leptospirosis. Check out these funny ways Pinoys survive bagyo season.

Never back down, never what?!

Everyone and their mother wanted to know what umbrella brand these Adamson University students were using. If it could weather gale-force winds and still make it out alive, it must be worth the bag space!

UST students fighting for their lives

Watching the University of Sto. Tomas students train for Ninja Warrior yearly is always a funny sight (if it werent frustrating).

There’s a reason Tomasians call it the Aquatic University of the Philippines.

Barangay outing!

Everyone’s invited to this Hagonoy, Bulacan barangay’s outing. They’ve busted out the floaters for kids, the rafts for adults, and do we spy inihaw? Such a classic!

Of course, Pinoys won’t miss hosting games. If you’ve got a street that fills into an Olympic-sized pool that only happens a few days a year, you’d take advantage of it too!

Itaas paa

@duwmhziwns di inabot paa ko pero inabot panty q 😭🤸 #raininginmanila #bulacan #fyp ♬ Raining In Manila – Lola Amour

POV: The manong tricycle driver asks you to put your feet up so your it won’t get wet but now your shorts are soaked. At least your shoes are dry.

Flooded streets in Manila are such a common sight that people have started rating them. Which one is your favorite baha area?

Realistic baha filter

@findingmnemoooooooo Update! 🤣 5’7 puu height ko🥺 P.S. May 3-4 steps na hagdan yang mga bahay sa likod ko kaya ganyan kataas ang gate at pinto nila.😊 #IbaOEste #calumpit #bulacan #egay #fyp #fypシ #foryoupage #baha ♬ MINI MISS U THEME SONG – It’s Showtime

This water filter on TikTok was fun when it was only a filter. IRL? Not as fun, but we Pinoys still take it on with a smile.

Animals swimming

These folks have accepted the fact that they’re now living with an amphibian.

Meanwhile, these folks were treated to an artistic underwater dance from their household rat.
