Abstract
The damage of the recent storms has been well documented, but arguably, the reasons for the level of devastation and possible future solutions have no t. This article critically examines both the areas accused of causing, or c ontributing, to the flooding and the solutions mentioned so far. It then su ggests an alternative solution, which could be the answer to our recent pro blems.
