Typhoon Ulysses is gone but the memories of the destruction it left behind will be forever remembered by Filipinos especially those that were hardly hit by this typhoon. Known as "Vamco" internationally, it brought strong and massive rainfall in most part of Luzon Region Philippines. It brought flood that submerge cities in Meto Manila like Marikina City. People were screaming for help as they were trapped in the roof of their homes.
As reported by the Armed Forces of the Philippines, the death toll reached 40 individuals, 40 were injured and 22 were missing. Five people died in a landslide in Ifugao Benguet and 6 persons still missing. More than 200,000 Filipinos were affected by this typhoon and 74,000 of them were in evacuation areas provided by their respective LGUs.
The continuous rainfall brought waters that flooded rivers, bay and dams. It spilled and entered in most area especially those that are low. They said it was bigger than typhoon Undoy that also killed many due to flood way back 2009.
Until this writing there are still several town and cities still submerged to flood water and being attended by government. Many expect typhoon Rolly will bring destruction but it just passed by, that's why most of the people don't expect typhoon Ulysses will be that so destructive.
