Floods after drought

What the hell is going on this year? Initially when there is severe drought, I thought it would be nice if it drizzles a bit. I use to love the rains and now that I live here and walk to class and the entire state in floods, I really hate it. Very sad to see the misery of people, I feel devastated. 

At least 230 people have been killed in Andhra Pradesh and neighboring Karnataka due to floods resulting from heavy rains since Wednesday (1^st Oct). Andhra Pradesh is facing the worst ever floods in its 60 years, as 60 per cent of Kurnool district was submerged on Friday leaving thousands homeless and stranded without food and water. Floods leave nearly 1.5 million people homeless. At least 200,000 homes were destroyed and almost 1,500 villages were partially  submerged.  Centuries old temple drowned in AP due to the floods.  Nearly two lakh people have been evacuated to relief camps in the worst-affected districts of Kurnool, Mahabubnagar and Krishna district.

The gates of several projects on the Krishna river -- including Jurala, Srisailam, Nagarjuna Sagar and Prakasham -- have been opened to release the flood water. While the inflow into Srisailam reservoir has touched an all-time high of 21 lakh cusecs, 10 lakh cusecs of water has been discharged from Srisailam and Nagarjuna Sagar reservoirs.
