Flash floods, seemingly, are increasingly common on our land stripped island. From the views of many pictures, and videos in some cases, we can safely say that we will never want to be in that situation.

 

Imagine the muddy water that climbs to the height of your wheel arches and penetrates your cabin. Then, it kills your engine, and leaves you (and your car) in the middle of the road (which should look more like a lake by then) like a sitting duck.

And not just any rain, but the type that falls steadily for hours on end. It can't be too heavy, because thunderstorms can seem violent. It can't be too light either, because that's annoying.
