Land
The Highest point in Falmata proper is 311 feet above sea level, at Zeget's Hill, and in the metro area it is 843 feet above sea level at Zun hill. The Falmata metro's terrain is largely flat, and defined by its plain region, that is largely urbanized and built out. Falmata's climate type falls under Tropical Savvannah, characterized by its hot but humid summers and warm but dry winters. Summer temperature averages around 28c or 82f. While Winter temperatures are coolor at around 24c or 75f. It rains a signifigant amount during the wet season, with averages throughout the season being 1335mm of rainfall or 55.5 Inches. In the dry season rainfall drops to 122 inches or 5 inches. Flooding is the most common natural disasters in the falmata area, while sinkholes and mudslides are also an occurance.
Water
Falmta is located off of the Egbon River delta, that spits off into the aurean ocean on the eastern coast of Pantsville. The freshwater around Falmata is very salty and sandy, so there are many systems of water purifications in the city. Most of the water falmata uses comes from the Pantsvillean coast plain aquafer. The coastal plain aquafer around falmata is 198 feet deep under the coast plain, the aquafer itself contains 208 million gallons of freshwater daily, however, the daily rate during the winter drought season is 148 million. The annual water demand is 71%, however, during the drought season, it rises to 89%, due to this, and due to water mismangagement which consists of 15-18% of the annual rate, the aquafer has sunk 20 inches per year, and water reserves only last the city 31 days. On years with more than expected rainfall in the wet season, drainage issues have been known to occur across the city, specifically effecting suburbs around the city, due to less drainage infastructure. The city has spent a lot to stop industrial waste and sewage from contanimating the main water supply in the city, but it means that draining has become more difficult to manage. Floods are not a rare occurance in the lower level areas of the cities, and can effect poor community because of the lack of drainage systems. Around 400,000 people are affected by flooding each year in the falmata metro, most of which live under the sea level or near flood dams. Around 150 people die from drowning each year including 42 who drown in a toilet.
