Heavy rain in Seoul!

I just heard about the weather news in Seoul, South Korea!
Some 70 mm of rain per hour pounded the Seoul metropolitan area on Tuesday afternoon, leaving four missing and traffic severely congested. Lightning caused an explosion that led to one death. Over 400 cases of flooding were reported in Seoul alone. Pocheon in Gyeonggi Province had the heaviest precipitation of 198.5 mm, followed by Namyangju and Uijeongbu in the province with 191 mm and 190.5 mm. Next were Dongdaemun district with 180 mm and Nowon district with 173.5 mm, both in Seoul.

I used to live in Nowon and I wonder what it looks like right now!?
I have never seen this much rain in Seoul before.
I hope all friends are safe!!
