Flood @ Orchard, Newton, Bukit Timah, Cantonment Road

[hquek]

toddles:

rained almost the whole night last night, wonder if any basement carparks etc got flooded...

really?? the rain started for me in the early morning (I live central area). Was musing that if it rained through the night...pp in bt timah etc may not be able to sleep well.

YOG is good for publicity. But imagine if the news worldwide is that some YOG events are postponed because of floods. Then we will be infamous liao :gloomy: .

I think some of our organizers will skip a beat every morning when there's heavy rain.
