Yes UT totally my bad. It was translated 'City' for me by my faithful translate which led me astray.Username Taken wrote:It's Kampot.Anchor Moy wrote:Lol. Good point.

@Lurcio - do u doubt my fantastic weather casts ? You are probably right, but I'm in training. Raining now where I am in SV, but tapering off to light shower at 20:30 - didn't see any sunset tho.
Ok, I give up my future career as weatherperson. Tomorrow is another day.

I live in Downtown and missed any heavy rain although it is drizzling now. It often seems to skirt around us here maybe shielded by the hills or the heat rising pushes a lot of it away.

Re: Flood alert and heavy rains for some provinces.
Why would Kampot have a flooding problem ? I thought that the water would quickly drain away into the river, or does this only happen when the river is in full tide ?
Just asking .

I suppose its like the rainwater that tries to drain away quickly into the river in PP - the garbage is blocking the drains, especially in areas like markets.Duncan wrote:Why would Kampot have a flooding problem ?

The problem with that theory is the water in PP has always flowed inland, away from the river, into lakes that have now been filled in and built on. Unlike Kampot where the water has always flowed towards the river. I'm just guessing.

Most of the locals blame the flooding on the dammed dam.

KAMPOT - At the Annual Meeting of Disaster Management Annual Meeting 2017, held at the Kampot Provincial Court Hall on May 2, 2018, His Excellency Senior Minister Nhim Vanda, Chairman of Executive Committee of the Management Committee Disaster, Deputy Superintendent of Sinohydro, said that the Kampot dam has contributed significantly to prevent and reduce the flooding downstream that always occurred every year in the past. The company has made every effort to reduce the impact of flooding in the rainy season.
Samp Sarath, deputy governor of Kampot province, said that with due care and precaution for the disaster, Kampot authorities have cooperated with partner organizations in installing a flood-level measurement system and early warning systems which are in Andong Chyngun village, Kampong Keng commune, Teuk Chhou district, below the hydropower dam Nicchi.
With the report mentioned above, Senior Minister Nhim Vanda said that in addition to these concerns, Kampot's disaster management committee should advise local authorities to continue education, disseminate knowledge to the people, giving them access to any information before an incident happens.
