I wouldn't say it was even two hours, closer to one, and I've seen heavier rain. But it was no fun walking through ankle deep (and occasionally knee deep) dirty water afterwards.
Would not like to have been where it was a metre deep. Just as well the drains were all sorted a while ago.

Possibly this little gem from Bangkok Jack may throw some light on the reason for the recent and no doubt further swamping events of Pattaya due to the inclement weather. PS a ditty for rott is included to commemorate his paddling in Pattaya.  bangkokjack.com/2019/04/02/reason-pattaya-keeps-flooding |
