Columbia has been experiencing one the wettest rainy seasons in recent memory. These heavy rains have forced over 250,000 to be evacuated, and were responsible for triggering two mudslides in western Columbia on Sunday. The mudslides buried 18 homes and have killed 24 people. Officials said that there are 30 people missing, and rescue crews are searching for them. The heavy rains are expected to continue for the next month or two, meaning that more mudslides can be expected.
