Sitiawan is flooding. My parent's house in Taman Sri Jaya is flooded with water. :crying: .
There is nothing I can do to help them at the moment.
Call your parents to see if they are ok.
Is it true.... i was on the phone just now with my dad but he didn't mention anything about flood....

Yup. Just did. Thanks, VC. They tell me water was 2 inches in the main hall. Lots of mud in the house in Taman Pegawai, but nothing really damaged. Let's wait for my dad to post pictures. He said he took some.
Chris? What's your report?
P.S. VC, I used to live at 11 Taman Sri Jaya for a few years. :)

3 feet is just too fracked up. I blame it on the uncontrolled constuction all over that area. No more natural drainage waterways. Just like in Kuala Lumpur.
Sitiawan Boleh!!!

Lawyer Chen's house is about 100 meters from my house. And it's closer to the large monsoon drain and lower, IIRC.

Its called rain....
Rain happens when the sun's heat evaporates water up into the atmosphere. The water vapor stays in the atmosphere until it cools and condenses, first into clouds and then into raindrops. How hard it can rain depends on the amount of moisture in the air. The atmosphere holds more water if it's warm, that's why most places that set rainfall records are in the tropics.

The rains came down at approx six in the morning and by 630 the whole of club road was flooded.The pasar malam was a mess--all and sundry were floating around .A family friend who was on the way to work? got stuck right in front of the house and we had to help him pushed the car to higher ground(Water was up to the seats).
The floods were the cause of blocked drains everywhere--will have to talk to the YDP.The DID people should make periodic checks on all the monsoon drains.
They are being paid to do their job----by US.

The only thing that he did was, he called his cousin to save his dogs. When the cousin reached the house, the dogs were swimming for dear life!! poor dogggies!!

The only thing that he did was, he called his cousin to save his dogs. When the cousin reached the house, the dogs were swimming for dear life!! poor dogggies!!

I think will not be as bad as the flood in KL some 2 years ago.. It happened just behind my office, Jalan Dang Wangi.. Habis flooded until ppl have to use motor boat. I pulak, got trapped in KL until 10.30 pm. Luckily, no problem with my car as it was parked at a higher level car park..

My parents place had 2 1/2 feet of water! Furniture all gone! My mom just renovated her kitchen and the goes the new kitchen cabinet!! bye-bye! My parents could not do anything but just sit back and watch as the water level raised inch by inch and in 20 minutes everything was floating around. Luckily my dad got both the cars to higher ground. The neighbour that bought her new Myvi had just left for Vietnam for holiday and did not pass the keys to my parents...so her car went swimming around her porch!!!!
