A year’s worth of rain – 640mm (25.2in) – fell in three days. It broke daily and hourly records and government officials said it was a one-in-1,000-year event. The city’s weather bureau said more than 552mm of rain had fallen between 7pm on Monday and 7pm on Tuesday, including 202mm between 4pm and 5pm on Tuesday.

Terrifying

Yes, it would be incredible if people hadn't been predicting events like this for decades.
