Sky in Bangalore looks fine. No sign of rain, clouds- moderate, humidity negligible and temperature pleasant. After reading these two lines everyone will think that I am going to elaborate the pleasant weather in Bangalore but who knows that I will be leading you to the worst rainfall recorded in Bangalore(230mm).
5 Mins Later
Clouds became black and the weather started showing symptoms of rain. Drizzling begins and the weather gets windy. It starts raining, people rush to their balconies to remove the clothes and children playing downstairs start looking for shelter below trees and slides. Water coming from the rooftops looked like mini waterfalls. Due to the humongous force of water, small streams of water were formed on the bare ground next to my appartment. On the road - pedestrians coming from shops and buildings used polybags to protect themselves from the heavy rains.
Impact
All the plants in my sight were destroyed by the rain. Probably all the crops grown in the area might have got spoiled by the excessive rainfall. The biggest impact was the ruined houses which lay on mud and the people living in might have suffered a lot. The rain has caused a lot of trouble for many and good for some dying for water.
