Just Those Rainy Days
Sunday April 16, 2006
It’s been a long time since we had flash floods, or rather I can’t think of the last time we had one! And it happened right in front of my block, in fact it happened all along the three streets. The photos speaks for itself. It was one of the heaviest downpours I’ve experienced, thankfully the flood subsided in less than an hour’s time but it still was a sight to see.
Well, I just thought it was something interesting to post about since it’s occurance is so rare. However, due to wierd climatic changes globally, I’ve a feeling it’s going to be a norm sooner or later. Whatever it is, I had a good long weekend. Back to the acadamy for me, confinement will be for 10 days. I’ll be home writing again in 2 weeks time.
Till then, be well my fellow readers and friends.

It is pretty interesting to see something I’ve never encountered before. Its a bad flood. It was out on the newspapers. In Bedok North.

Yup. It has been quite a while since my younger days that I have seen flood in Singapore. Back then, the kids really enjoyed playing whenever there were floods but nowadays people tend to curse the weather, be it rain or sun – you can never please them.
