It might be a dump and ignorant question... but these floods seem to
become very regular. And I was under the impression that it used to be
a once in a while ocassion before?


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

At the time, I read that the 2000 floods was a "once in a lifetime" event.
And now it's happened twice in 2 years and 3 times in 13.
