Fear strikes France: Flood in Pas-de-Calais

Floods continue in France! Heavy rains have hit the northern regions of Pas-de-Calais and Nord since Sunday, forcing the evacuation of about 200 people and knocking out power to 10,000 households. Roads in the town of Blędek have turned into waterways and authorities on Wednesday warned residents in areas at risk of flooding to limit their movements until water levels recede. Hundreds of rescuers from across France were mobilized to rescue people from flooded homes and cleared roads, with reinforcements with personnel and equipment arriving from the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the already drenched Netherlands. Powerful pumps have been deployed to divert up to 60,000 cubic meters of water from the worst-hit towns towards the English Channel and lower water levels in the Aa delta. #weather #typhoon #rain #france #flood #Henk #volcano #earthquake #floods #disasters #storm #news #landslide #pasdecalais The channel lists natural disasters such as: 1) Emergency geological situations: earthquake, volcanic eruption, mud, landslide, landslide, avalanche; 2) Emergency hydrological situations: flood, tsunami, limnological disaster, flood, flood; 3) Fires: forest fire, peat fire; 4) Meteorological emergencies: Tornado, Cyclone, Blizzard, Hail, Drought, Tornado, Hail, Hurricane, Tsunami, Storm, Thunderstorm, Storm.
