[quote:Anonymous Coward 77912695:MV80MTExNzY3Xzc0NjI2MzMwX0I3RTk4NDg0] [quote:Anonymous Coward 77840146:MV80MTExNzY3Xzc0NjI0MTk1Xzk0RTE4NDY0] [quote:Green Tabber:MV80MTExNzY3Xzc0NjE2MDcxX0UxNjRCNTlG] It has mountains 20 miles inland with marshy areas along the coast. Floods are likely a very common occurrence in the area. The overcrowding of India may not be as bad as Bangladesh, but it is bad. People live in areas that they should not even think of living of living on. The worst flooding in 40 years? As they have twice as many people as back then, this really does not look too bad. Too bad for those stuck there, for sure. It is not easy getting a 7-11. [/quote] FFS, not sure why you would want to discount this story that is like so many others happening right now. IT'S A FUCKING TREND WORLDWIDE! The entire world is seeing these kinds of relentless storms. S. Korea just got blasted with 5 inches of rain in an hour and 10 in a day. The images from there are horrendous. As mentioned above Missouri was hit with 14 inches of rain. Wherever you look, there are record setting storms day after day not too far away. [/quote] How old are you? You must be a young one to be taken in by these weather "horror" stories. Those of us who have been around a bit longer know it's not unusual, we have seen periods of no water and mowater. LOL. A little joke my grandfather once told me that involved rain and mowater. This is just a speck we are living in now in the grand scale of time. All things change in the long run, you can't stop it. Weather patterns repeat in decades of time and march relentlessly forward toward global change in EONS of time, only to circle back and start all over again. Chill. You can't change it, all you can try to do is adapt for survival. [/quote]

"worst in 40 years" All the homes were affected. 100,000 displaced - homeless overnight. The entire earth is getting some of this.
