Floods Cause Tragic Mudslides - Many Dead

Date:
I have reported the torrential rain we’ve been
experiencing. I thought it might be normal. It isn’t. This morning a bucket I’d left on deck
yesterday was full to the brim. Not a glass – a bucket. Transpose this amount of
rain to an entire mountainside and the consequences have been horrendous. In the
slums around It’s sobering to think that the fun-loving city which we were enjoying so much just 10 days ago, and which is just down the road, is now in a state of chaos and suffering such tragedy. The reason those people affected by this tragedy lived in the slums in the first place was because they had very little. Now they have nothing. My thoughts are with them. |
