For my Imperially challenged peers in the US, that's about a fucking YARD of water. Enough to seiously flood most places you might think are safe from flooding in the US to deadly effect.

For those not meteorologically inclined: a huge thunderstorm with torrential rain might drop 6".

We got flooded roads when it rained 25mm in one hour
900mm is insane, I hope the government planned for something like this with huge storm drains...
