Focusing on the crucial role water plays in the weather, this film focuses on several calamitous events: a freak flood which swept through the town of Lynmouth in Devon in 1952, destroying 94 buildings and killing 34 people; a rainstorm which killed 144 people in the Big Thompson Canyon in Colorado in 1976; and a 1993 flood which destroyed 40,000 homes in Valmeyer, Illinois. There is also a report from Bombay, where the monsoon is 40 days late and rain is eagerly awaited.
