Yes when it rains it rains plus there drainage is shite when we went a few weeks ago it was pissing down and some roads were blocked .

[GT_lenny]

hope no one was hurt was this flooding localised or were many parts of the island affected?

[banarama]

pretty bad, its only a matter of time and well get weather like them

[Andrade]

when it rains for a long time this happens. the ares on low ground get all the water from higher places and you get feet of water in some areas, its a yearly occurrence that cars get dragged away during heavy downpour

in malta, when it rains....you must keep the car door shut!!

Water stopped about 50m down the road from where I live so the garage stayed dry. Once it did reach us though the garage was flooded, it was about 10 years ago maybe a bit less.

makes you realise how lucky we are in England. we moan about the cold and rain but it could get a lot worse.

On reflection, I think I'd rather get flooded somewhere warm than somewhere wet and cold like here.

[Grizzley Dell]

yeah point taken

More floods...............a bit closer to home for me this time too, and I slept through it all

Quite thankful that we live in the west of the county as the south-west had severe flooding
