If continue to have thunderstorm almost everyday, chances of flooding again is high.

 

Very. The thunderstorms like never move one. Only the days moving. Comparing between yesterday's chart and today's chart... same symbols, different days - Monday was supposed to be light rain, now also thunderstorm already.. and hot some more.. siao liao.. perfect environment for diseases and mozzies...

So you renewed it eventually...  [thumbsup]

 

Hope it's not giving any more problem. How much did the radiator problem cost you the other time?

 

i almost got the Forester, but kids wanted rear aircon, so eventually chose the tucson instead.

spent too much time and $ figuring out the water temp issue LOL

 

Tucson good for flood! LOL.

To reach Brinchang, starts from Simpang Pulai which has no landslide.

 

By the way, have you ever heard of Brinchang in Cameroon Highland landslide?

Quote:

With so much rainfall now, there is possibility of landslide in Cameron Highland.

 

If die die must go, Brinchang is the safest bet being the highest point.

Unquote.

 

Since you mentioned highest point, I expected you to refer to this:

 

By the way, I don't believe in "never heard of means will never happen". I had never heard of tsunami striking Penang and Thailand prior to 2004 but we all know what happened in Dec 2004.

Quite true. We should not take things for granted.

 

I have never heard of earthquake in Malaysia until it happened in June 2015.

Drainage system not enough to handle?

Actually this is quite common in many countries cos weather are more 'extreme' especially in the last decade or so. Even the UK is seeing more floods than before cos the rain is more intense and heavier (tho nothing is the rain we see in this region).

Simpang Pulai up to CH occasionally will have landslide at year end rainy season, albeit mostly minor ones.
