There was heavy damage to properties along East Coast Road due to the heavy rains accompanied by winds on Tuesday evening and Wednesday.
 
This resulted in several trees being uprooted, garbage strewn about and severe damages to homes – both permanent concrete houses as well as thatched huts. Residents also complained of water stagnation in the area.
 
Huts that line the coastal road were also badly damaged with thatched roofs and walls and caving in, and some cars too, were damaged.
