"Pouring down" in Rio de Janeiro !

Nowadays it is really hard to believe in the weather forecast, isn't it? Maybe that's why most people who live in Rio de Janeiro are trapped in several streets when sudden downpours (heavy rain) flood the streets very quickly and unexpectedly!

When "it rains cats and dogs" in Rio de Janeiro nobody can move around several parts of the city.It is "dramatic" to reach home"safe and sound" when torrential rains hit "The Wonderful City ".Have you ever had this kind of problem in your city?

Whenever" pouring rain" hits the city, huge traffic jams appear at once making drivers park their cars anywhere and wait for the waters to lower down!Do you think it is a good idea to do that? What would you do if you were caught in the middle of a traffic jam along flooded streets?

 Bus passengers who cannot stay inside the buses, get off them carelessly, in the middle of the "pouring rain" and try to reach a safe spot to wait for next buses to take them home! It is a real challenge to get home safely!

Can you imagine your reaction in this kind of situation? How would you feel if you had to face these kinds of "obstacles"?You can write a few words about these problems at the bottom of this post, can't you?
