STOMPer cuda sent in a photo of flooding at Kranji road.
STOMPer Allen also shared of a photo of a flooded condominium carpark.
STOMPer Edmund sent in a photo of a flooded hawker centre at Clementi and said:
"Flooding at Clementi hawker centre.
"Our whole family was having lunch this afternoon at Blk 353, Clementi Avenue 2, when the sudden heavy downpour resulted in rain water rushing into the hawker centre.
"It was flooded within seconds and left us eating with our legs lifted up..."
STOMPer Jerry said:
"Heavy downpour causes flooding at Pasir Ris HDB void deck.
"This is at Pasir Ris Street 11. Perhaps the local authorities shoud look into this?
"Flooding seems very common nowadays and yet nothing seems to be done yet."
