CHUKAI, July 4 — Terengganu Fire and Rescue Department director Hassan ‘As’ari Omar believes that the unusually heavy rainfall on Saturday was the main cause of the water surge phenomenon at Jeram Air Putih, here.
According to the DID’s Public Infobanjir website, Kemaman district recorded rainfall readings of 0.5 mm on June 28, 9.0 mm and 0.5 mm . Rainfall data on June 29 and 30 was not recorded due to disruption of the observation system. “When it rained very heavily on Saturday, I believe it caused everything that accumulated in the river crater and the stone blocks no longer able to withstand the load before suddenly collapsing and drifting away in the form of a water surge,” he said.
