You need a boat in "Boat City"

I am not sure if I have explained what the name of my city means. Łódź means boat in English, and during past two months I had a feeling that this boat is sinking, or that people from this city should be equipped with real boat... Why? Everything due to the rain and thunderstorms in Lodz - they were so strong, unexpectedly, that almost every day they caused horrible traffic jams, problems, demages... The streets were awashed, turning into wild rivers, small lakes, even 2 m. deep!... The unbelievable way the nature can tell you, you are not prepared for anything... that within 15 minutes city can be paralysed... I am amazed with that and it made me think. Made me a bit afraid - what will the future bring? The change of the climat, of the weather... should I really buy a boat just in case? But for you to believe - just take a look...
