There is also a Nether ruined portal near the top of the cliff and an abandoned camp.

Just recently stumbled upon this recent detailed study regarding the 2025 Daet tornado event which happened in an unusual way (it was a tornadic supercell outbreak that happened in the morning) even though it just happened in a purely tropical environment, breaking many textbook information.

Anyway... here are the main points:

A. Introduction

- On 13 September 2025 ~22 UTC (14 September 2025 ~6 AM local time), Camarines Norte experienced the first documented tornado outbreak in the Philippines.

- At least five tornadoes (one ~EF3/IF2.5, two EF1/IF1, and two EF0/IF0) were identified.

- Three were associated with tornadic supercells.

- The strongest tornado (TOR2) reached IF2.5 (~EF3-equivalent) based on damage surveys

B. Timing

(Morning event)

- Occurred around 05–07 LST, not during the usual afternoon/evening peak.

(Tropical environment)

- No classic dryline or Plains setup. Instead, the event was associated with:

- an easterly wave,

- an inverted trough,

- low-level convergence,

- abundant moisture,

- terrain enhancement from the Camarines Norte mountain ranges

C. Storm type

(Supercell)

The study documented:

- multiple tornadic supercells,

- BWER,

- overshooting tops,

- hook-shaped hodographs,

- radar debris signatures,

- ZDR and KDP columns.

(So yeah, the environment there feels like (resembles) in the Tornado Alley in some respects, and with overlapping instability and surface vorticity.)

D. Environment

Around tornado time:

- CAPE ≈ 2167 J/kg

- 0–3 km CAPE ≈ 115 J/kg

- CIN ≈ 0 J/kg

- LCL ≈ 180 m

- RH > 80%

- modest SRH (70–100 m²/s²)

The hodographs were especially interesting because they were driven by “east-southeasterly flow,” producing an unusual tropical hook-shaped profile.

So, this is quite unusual here because the easterly wave (Easterlies) is a normal occurrence in the Philippines. Those are the trade winds that originate in the Pacific, bringing thunderstorms and humid conditions in the eastern part of the country, but it wasn’t even known for the tornado-producing system since this event is very very rare.

If you want to know more about this event, you may try to read the reference/study provided.

So, ayun nga, gumawa kami ng isang e-book as part of our collaborative project to give light and raise awareness para sa mga learners with disabilities and inclusive education.

Ako pala gumawa ng title, which is Beyond the Rainbow: The Colourful Personalities in Classrooms

Na-isipan ko lang siyang gawin na pa Rainbow or Colours na as symbols and theme sa aming book, because of the word spectrum. Diba, sa disability rin, may spectrum, so ginamit ko siya for metaphor and symbolism, because sila naman talaga ang nagbibigay ng iba’t ibang kulay sa paligid, as well as, mas lively siya.

Anyway, fineature rin po namin yung mga teachers sa Pilipinas, yung stories nila sa paghahandle ng mga bata na may special needs sa inclusive classrooms. Sana po, ma-inspire po kayo. And thanks! 🥹🌈

Colours are so diverse nga.

If you read it po, ano po pala mga pwede niyong i-share na insights, thoughts, reflections, or any essence na natutunan niyo about sa mga diverse learners?

And as well as, kung PWD rin po kayo, paano po kayo nakarerelate sa ganitong sitwasyon?

Future educator here!
