Freak Rainstorms

Freak rainstorms occurred both in UK and Singapore.

The heaviest rainfall ever recorded in UK triggered floods in the Lake District which were as deep as 8 feet in some areas. The flood created by the freak rainstorm in Britain was cited as a 1-in-a-1000 years flood.

On Thursday, almost half of the average monthly rainfall for November fell from 1 - 3pm and created floods in the Bukit Timah area. Our flood was cited as a 1-in-a-50 years flood.
I used to live in Bukit Timah area for close to 20 years until I moved in the late 90s. It used to flood quite easily whenever it rains heavily. Used to love it when my brother and I were young because it meant we could be late for school or even better, we didn't have to go to school! Haha. :P
