Slight seas, rain seen at Manila Bay ‘white sand’ beach

With Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 4 raised over Metro Manila on Sunday morning due to Typhoon Rolly, things still appeared to be quiet at Manila Bay’s dolomite beach, according to a tweet by Super Radyo dzBB’s Isa Avendaño Umali.

At 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, rain and slight seas were seen at the “white sand” beach.

Last October 21, trash and water hyacinths washed onto the beach due to Tropical Storm Pepito.

To create the 500-meter beach along Manila Bay, the government said it spent about P28 million to fill the stretch with sand made from tons of crushed dolomite from the Visayas. — DVM, GMA News
