A flash flood occurred in Puncak Alam, Selangor, after heavy rain lasting about an hour. The water level was recorded at approximately 0.3m in some areas, including Jalan Persiaran Puncak Alam 6. The Selangor Fire and Rescue Department's Assistant Director of Operations, Ashrul Riezal Asbar, stated that six members from the Bestari Jaya Fire and Rescue Station monitored the flood risk in the area at 3:45 pm, and although water overflowed onto the road, no evacuations were carried out.
