The total rainfall was 160mm (16cm) in 24 hours (A whole year's rainfall!)
The storm water caused flooding, sewage pipes we're blocked due to flooding, the rain hit the roofs in gutters or spouting, streets flows in drains, it was too much!
St. Clair & South Dunedin was the worst area of flooding.
Schools had to send children home early (shut or closed).
The Elliotts were lucky - their house, garage and shed wasn't flooded!
