This time-lapse footage shows a flood rapidly surging into a home during a storm in Thailand.

Within minutes, the residence was filled with waist-deep water, prompting the residents to move their belongings following heavy rain in Ang Thong province on October 18.

Another video shows how the flood gushed into the house after it spilled over sandbag barricades put in place to protect the area.

Homeowner Adisak Khetphasuk said: 'The water has now receded a little bit. We were so shocked by how quickly it rose. It's scary how powerful the flood is.'

Local media has reported that Thailand has this year seen 'an unusually sustained and persistent rainy season'.

Meteorologists have blamed climate change for the sustained heavy rain, which has been hitting the Thai capital and provinces around the country causing heavy floods for several weeks.

Thailand's Center for Climate Change and Disaster claimed the coming months could see heavier, longer rainfalls, due to 'climate change'.
