STORMY SUNDAY: (Feb 26) Thousands of residents in Shah Alam were rudely awakened at dawn by floodwaters gushing into their homes. Two hours of heavy rain since 3.30am had resulted in Sungai Damansara overflowing its banks and the waters inundating 3,000 houses. The worst affected areas were Taman TTDI Jaya, Kampung Melayu Kebun Bunga and Kampung Melayu Subang, Kampung Baru Hicom and Batu Tiga. Thousands of vehicles were diverted to alternative routes after the 15th kilometre stretch along the Federal Highway and the ninth kilometre of the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) were flooded.
