00:00On Thursday afternoon, I noticed the weather looked unusual.

00:18It rained, but we did not expect the water level to rise at such speed that night.

00:22I saw the water rising in front of the house.

00:25It had never happened before.

00:27The next morning, around 7 a.m., they told me that my shop had been affected.

00:31I rushed over, but it was too late by the time I got there.

00:34The water had already overflowed from the culvert.

00:37At that time, the water hadn't reached this area yet.

00:40It was still rising.

00:41I quickly grabbed what I could, locked the door, and focused on saving myself.
