Well the breeze did not blow so the clouds did not move, so when the rain come down on the already SARTURATED ground, what happens is flooding.

[quote="Newsday"]HEAVY rainfall between Saturday night and yesterday resulted in several areas in west Trinidad being flooded and some persons spending their weekend marooned at home.

At Morne Coco Road in Diego Martin, a woman was swept away by raging flood waters but was later rescued. The perimetre wall of a house fell onto the main road after the foundation was undermined by the flooding and several homes and business places were waterlogged.

A release from the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Management (ODPM) revealed that low- lying areas experienced flooding including Raymond Street, Carenage; Goodwood Gardens; Apple Blossom, Petit Valley; Crystal Stream; Victoria Gardens, Diego Martin and Factory Road, Diego Martin.

Officials from the Diego Martin Regional Corporation, Ministry of Works and Transportation, Fire Service and the Special Anti-Crime Unit (SAUTT) rendered assistance to affected citizens.

“The ODPM further advises all citizens to remain vigilant and take the necessary measures to safeguard their families and valuables,â€

No amout of complaining about cleaning and inadequate drainage is Ever HEARD and DEALTH with in a proper manner by the proper authorities.

Too right evo-sti-k, but also, anytime there are heavy showers AND there is a high tide, the whole of the four roads, west mourings areas floods.

I watched as the muddy flood waters rose up in the drain behind my house, there was about 12 inches of water where it came in to the back of the yard. (Victoria gardens)
