BUTTERWORTH: Heavy rain led to flash floods in several areas on the mainland of Penang.
Affected locations included Penanti and Tanah Liat in Central Seberang Perai and Sungai Dua in North Seberang Perai.
Photos on social media show villagers wading through knee-deep floodwaters.
A Civil Defence Force spokesperson said the flash flood occurred after heavy rain from midnight until early morning on Monday (April 21).
The downpour also caused water to flood several homes in the affected areas.
The flood subsided after the rain stopped at about 5am.
On April 16, several parts of George Town, including Jalan P. Ramlee and Teluk Kumbar, experienced flash floods after several hours of rain.
No evacuation centre was activated due to the flooding.
