The hotter it gets the more water will evaporate

and what goes up will come down.

Expect more floods.

:D

I am getting my MIL a transit link card

so she can take more MRT.

With global warming its only a matter of time.

@Didu 

One guy shared his experience when kenna stuck in the tunnel on 20 Jul afternoon.

He explained he was one of the last few cars stuck as the there was a jam when the water started to pour in.

Then there was a PA warning all to exit tunnel ASAP - He sounded like a MCFer heart pain about his car still left behind. All happened around 40 min as he made his way out of the tunnel with the rest...

He is still holding his car key during the interview. 🤣

 

at least there was an official PA warning to get out. Hopefully all the pple left quickly enough.

not just bus. MRT also and there are more than 1 MRT retrieved with black cloth covering the windows.

Strange that we have Mainland locals don't trust their govt  but we have people outside CN trusting what ccp is saying and helping them to whitewash

 

I just wonder why the dead cannot be removed before the bus or train is being towed that they covered to prevent people from peeping through the dirty/stained windows to count the number of dead?  A massive incident like that involved so many people, can shut all from leaking out and even the families of the dead? I think making up stories are easy but some simple logic thinking would help.

The title of the article implies it's the weather that caused the flood. But locals say the rain actually only contributed less than 20% of the flood waters.

Why weather forecasters failed to predict China's latest devastating floods

  • The Henan authorities were braced for heavy rains ahead of Zhengzhou’s devastating floods – but they expected them to hit another city on a different day
  • Meteorological experts say predicting rainfall and extreme weather are two of the hardest things to get right

I thought that's not going to help.

seriously the news of the type of flooding in july all over the world seems to be of a different level now. a shift from the usual expectations.

this is going to be more common for some time, at least for my limited remaining life time.
