Freak Storms are Common in Malaysia

It’s in the news today. A pre-dawn rainstorm and twister wreaked havoc causing damage to schools and houses in Batu Pahat, a small town in Johor.

This came as no surprise to me. Not only freak storms, even flash floods are getting more frequent. Storms and twisters are not uncommon anymore. The thunder seems to get louder by the day. Haze seems to be a yearly affair.

Something is definitely not right here in Malaysia.
