The Magat dam incident sounds a bit fishy to me unless the water was pretty shallow. Water has a built in safety mechanism for fish in that it is at its densest at 4 degrees C. Dense water sinks so the deep water should stay cool. I wonder if the heat encouraged poisonous algae to grow which either the fish ate or which took the oxygen out of the water so the fish died.

Whatever, it is not nice. Ironic that here we have had a few days of heavy rain. Shame we cannot ship the excess water over to you :ugeek:

El Nino has different effects on other parts of the world. Although it has resulted in a lack of rain for the Philippines, it has brought a great deal of rain to us in Texas. Central Texas was experiencing a 2 year drought. Our main lake was 40 feet below it's normal full level. But because of El Nino, we have had about 25 inches of rain in 3 months, and the lake is now 3 feet above it's full level...and it is a BIG lake...over 65 miles long.
It s being predicted that this El Nino induced weather pattern will continue for another 4 months. I don't know how it is affecting the rest of the Philippines. Are there any Forum members living in other provinces who can comment on the effects of El Nino?
