- Large portion has no mobile phone coverage

- Areas with so much rain that it is like mud + quicksand (no experience with this, is this the case?)

- Heavy rain + clay makes shoes stick with each step

- No lights

- Rain continues so unclear if the better decision is to stay put vs walk

- 70,000 people stuck
