Yaacob's Ark to be built to save famiLEE LEEgime during floods

Yaacob Almighty?!

The Book of LEEgime, chapters 6-9, tells how God sends a great flood to destroy the red dot because of man's wickedness and because the red dot is corrupt. God tells Noah, the righteous man in his generation, to build a large vessel to save his family and a representation of the world's animals. God gives detailed instructions for the Ark and, after its completion, sends the animals to Noah. God then sends the Flood, which rises until all the HDB flats are covered, and most living things died, except the fish. Then "God remembered Noah," the waters abate, and dry land reappears. Noah, his family, and the animals leave the Ark, and God vowed to never again send a flood to destroy the red dot.

​

May be the Singaporeans should consider to construct Singapore's Ark at Hong Lim Park?

:-)

Sail that to the Istana?

SINGAPORE: Heavy rain on Thursday afternoon caused localised flash floods at MacPherson Road and Tai Seng Drive.

National water agency, PUB, said the flash floods subsided within 30 minutes.

A caller to the MediaCorp Hotline, Jerry Hanis, who works in Kampong Ampat, said that traffic had to be diverted.

"The worst was at MacPherson Road, the flooding was very bad. And Kampong Ampat is a small road near the Mazda showroom. There were two lanes where vehicles couldn't pass through. Only the right-most lane was left for traffic. This is not the first time that it was flooded here. It floods whenever it rains," he said.

PUB, Traffic Police and SCDF officers were activated to give assistance on site.

PUB said there was no flooding in Bukit Timah and Orchard Road.

It is currently widening and deepening an outlet drain at MacPherson to help with the flood situation.

Work is expected to be completed by the end of next year.

Meanwhile, a fallen tree along Braddell Road towards Toa Payoh Lorong 6 caused traffic in the area to slow.

NParks said it was alerted to the incident at about 1pm.

It said its officers managed to push the tree to the side of the road by about 2pm.

The total rainfall for June this year is 10 times higher compared to the same period last year.

The National Environment Agency (NEA) said the total rainfall recorded at Changi Climate Station in June is 240.5 mm, up from just 21.8 mm last year.

However, it is not the first time Singapore experienced heavy rainfall in the month of June. There was a similar level of rainfall in June 2006.

The Meteorological Services added that average rainfall for June since 1869 is 162.2 mm.

NEA said the above average rainfall for June this year can be attributed to the occurrence of intense thunderstorms and "Sumatra" squalls that affected Singapore during the month.

Sumatra squalls are significant rain-bearing systems that occur more commonly during the Southwest Monsoon months from June to September.

NEA added that the weather in July could continue to be affected by "Sumatra" squalls.

PUB has advised the public to exercise caution as flash floods may still occur in the event of heavy storms.
