Flooding depends on many factors but what’s truly shocking is the amount of rain falling from the sky. So many such events in the past few days.

Exhibit 1: Zhengzhou, China: year's worth of rain (25 inches) in one day, about 8 inches of that came down in just one hour.
Exhibit 2: Maharashtra, India: many places with over 8 inches in one day with some receiving up to 17 inches in one day. Whooping 800% above normal rainfall in some places this season. en.gaonconnection.com/heavy-rainfall…
