It was a sad day for Peter's town,which is a mountain city.In the twenty four hours up to noon,nearly seventeen inches of rain fell.Usually about sixteen inches of rain falls in the whole month of June.
Floods ran down from the mountain towards the city.Roads in the top area of the mountain were washed away.Tons of mud and rocks crashed down on the houses below and the houses were destroyed immediately.Sixty-four people died in the flood and more than 2,500 lost their homes.For some time after the flood,help from the whole nation arrived into the city.Helicopters with doctors flew to the people of the place,tractors and trucks worked hard to clear away the stones and earth,electrical workers come to repair the electric lines.Many people sent money and daily necessities to the people in trouble and helped them rebuild their hometown.Two years later,a newly-built city appeared there.
