Ponding.

I recently encountered the term "ponding" for the first time. Unfortunately, my apartment's living room has been "ponded" three times this month due to heavy rain washing away soil from my trough and clogging the drainage system.

It took me over 2 hours to scoop up the water and dry the living room. Fortunately, I was mentally prepared for this because it had happened before and I didn't take action then due to my laziness. But today, I decided to take care of the situation once and for all.

By 1640 hrs, everything was cleared.

Rearranged a little and now my balcony looks presentable.
