When I was about 14 years old, I lived in Surathanee, which is in the South of Thailand. A flood hit our district because of a rain storm. The roads were flooded with a lot of water.
My family and I worked to find things--brick, stone, and sand bags--in order to dam the water that flooded our house. Also, other people did like our family.
The people who lived next to the river had to climb up the roofs of their houses as the water from the river flooded their houses very quickly. They had to sit on the roofs with their families and some of their things that they had been able to bring with them until a rescue party came to help them.
There were many consequences of this flood. For example, my father's rubber business was damaged because his rubber got wet and he couldn't use it in his business anymore.
In addition, people who had to go out had to use boats instead of cars or walking. Many houses were damaged. People had to stay at the places that the rescue parties prepared for them. Some merchants chose this chance to make more money. They hoarded the food and products in order to see them to people expensively.
