The floods in September 2002 followed heavy rainfall that month (3,500 mm), thanks to Tropical Storm Lili. One person died. Local residents described the flood as being the most disastrous since Hurricane Gilbert in September 1988. A contributory factor to the flooding has been identified by residents as silt. Some of this comes from local quarries, particularly belonging to Jamaica Gypsum & Quarries Ltd., but local deforestation by residents seeking firewood was also identified as a contributing factor. The dumping of garbage was another factor identified.
The Ten miles and Eleven miles areas of Bull Bay are regularly subject to floods. The residents have complained that they have lost livestock, personal belongings, cars, and houses. They also complained of increased problems with insects and pests, bad roads, and resultant health problems.
