Hong Kong was hit with record-breaking rainfall that is being described as a "once-in-a-century" event. Hong Kong's transport system faced severe disruption due to the heaviest rainfall on record in 140 years - brought on by Typhoon Haikui which made landfall in the Chinese province of Fujian on Tuesday.
Two people died and over 100 were injured in the storms, local media reported.
Eric Chan, the Secretary for Administration, announced that the "extreme conditions" warning will stay in place until at least midnight due to floods and landslides affecting Hong Kong.

I was there in HK when I was about to finish the trip and ready to head back to Canada. Me and my sis were packed and took a uber van to airport. The fact that even a road bridge was completely flooded tells how dangerous it was during that time period. I was borned and lived in HK for 15 years, and I've never seen anything like that in my life. I am glad we managed to leave that day.

The Chinese regime has wreaked havoc on Hong Kong 🇭🇰 in the past few years *more than all typhoons, torrential rains and storms* have for the past 100 years combined.

Get ready from west coast and into from west official east this week let's say this week will experience massive floods in Vancouver Island Vancouver over the mountains and like no more fires but floods and Saskatchewan will flood from gathering it all rain and burned forests also have less to take in as sponging effect of water into vegetation is way less since fires in which water will definitely keep on flowing and creating floods accross Canada. Stay safe Canada 🇨🇦

But Canadians paid their carbon taxes? I thought us paying taxes because we are less than 2% of global pollution was supposed to change the climate of the entire planet? What’s going on!?!?!?

y'all paid your carbon taxes, but that doesn't really affect much to the ENTIRE planet. Climate change is not something that can change in an instant

Hong Kong's heaviest rain in 140 years! Climate change is real and it's happening now. 🌍💔 - Thich Nhat Hanh, “each person, humankind and nature” are inextricably interconnected. Grounded in mindfulness practice, this insight informs all aspects of his life. With no “us” or “them,” no “inner” or “outer,” mindfulness and nonviolence are the same. A dedication to the path of compassion springs from deep understanding of nonduality. “A person, humankind and nature are inseparable. Therefore, by not caring properly for one . . . man harms all three.”

Bad news. Good news. Matt. 24.20. for then shall be great tribulation such as was not sine the begining of the world to this time, no nor ever shall be. Rom. 10.13. Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Jesus is Lord, time is short, call on him now.
