The rainfall station here received the highest amount of water in central Seberang Prai at 152mm compared to other areas, which received 40mm to 60mm on Wednesday, he said.
Lee added that the water level in Sungai Junjung nearby rose up to 3.84m by 8pm, adding that the warning level is 3.3m and the danger level is 3.7m The flood is strange as these badly-affected areas have not been hit in a long time. It is probably due to the tremendous amount of rain which poured within a very localised area, said Lee.
