Communities and businesses in Windhoek were devastated by massive downpours on 14 December 2022 The City of Windhoek's fire and rescue team arrived at Wernhill shopping center to pump out water from stores and vehicles. The mall's management had signs up announcing the temporary closure of the centre's ground floor, apologising for the inconvenience.

Those who travel to and from Windhoek city centre by taxi were left stranded as some routes were completely flooded, making them impossible to cross. Many commuters were still waiting for taxis at 19h00 on 14 December evening. Two vehicle accident scenes were observed at different corners in the city, while some traffic lights were out of order. At Windhoek's informal settlements, leaking roofs and soaked beds were the order of the day. Some families slept outside in the rain. At Rocky Crest, some residents returned from work to find their apartments with no roofs. Two apartment roofs in particular were completely blown off. A resident yesterday said the three-bedroom apartments were worth about N$1,3 million. A body corporate member who was present at the complex said they were about to start with repairs. 14 December flash floods were unprecedented, with 88 mm and 100 mm recorded in some areas.
