It doesn't matter how much or how little rain there is, if it is low lying flat land near a river then it will flood no matter what. Many areas don't see flooding because they are above see level. Look at hills or valleys for a start. I know I studied geography but I thought things like that would be common sense.

Down the road from me where the Clde flows between Rutherglen and Dalmarnock the road regularly floods and recently was that bad the road was impassable and the Tesco superstore was inaccessible for a couple of days!

Also there have been flood defences put in place to a lot of regularly flooded areas but sometimes there is even too much water that the defences aren't enough.

You really don't show much grasp of reality sometimes.
