According to records, the rain lasted about 1 hour, water from many areas poured in, causing Le Van Tam Street (Ward 2, Bao Loc City) to be flooded more than 1 meter deep and dozens of meters long.

An alley in Ward 2, Bao Loc City is deeply flooded.

Here, some motorbikes of local people were not able to move in time and were submerged in water. Water flooded some houses along the road and caused this section of road to be cut off from traffic for more than an hour.

People were surprised by the large amount of water pouring in in a short time.

Similar situations also occurred on Ky Con, Nguyen Cong Tru, Huynh Thuc Khang (Ward 2), Ha Giang, Le Hong Phong (Ward 1) streets with flooding from 20 - 40cm.

According to some households living in the affected area, due to the degraded drainage system, when it rains heavily, the water cannot drain quickly, causing flooding.

Authorities put up warning ropes in dangerous areas when water flows rapidly.

This afternoon, heavy rainfall was recorded in some areas of Bao Loc City, ranging from 64 to 74 mm. Previously, on June 17, flooding also occurred here, with water rising from the road and overflowing into some houses.

Currently, Bao Loc City authorities are calculating the damage caused by the heavy rain.
