Europe under water! Slovenia is still in shock! Norway, Germany, Italy closed! End of the world now!
Slovenia
Severe flash floods hit northern Slovenia today and the state meteorological service has declared a red alert level for this part of the country.
Complete chaos in Slovenia: houses flooded, torrents raging - there are fatalities
In half an hour, 30 liters of rain per square meter fell on Krvavec, Radio-Television Slovenia reported.
Flooding in Kamnik in northern Slovenia has killed one person, media reports said.
The Kamnik portal said the water carried away an elderly resident near the village of Bistricice.
Police said this morning that the body of a local resident was found in front of a house in the Kamnik area, but they were unable to travel to the site because of the flooding.
The most rain fell at the foot of the Julian Alps and in the region of Gorenjska and Carinthia.
In these regions, between 100 and 200 liters of rain per square meter have already fallen overnight, equal to a month’s rainfall, meteorologist Brane Gregorčič told Radio Slovenia.
He added that, however, not a drop of rain had fallen on the sea and in Bela Krajina.
“Today tightened the warning for the northern part to red, in the afternoon today and also at night will intensify heavy downpour. The center of gravity of precipitation will shift from the west to the east, where in some places it has not even rained yet“
Germany
In Germany, the state of North Rhine-Westphalia was particularly badly affected, with reports of damaged cars, broken windows and flooded streets. The storm caused major disruptions to travel, with several flights cancelled and train services delayed or cancelled.
A severe storm and hailstorm have caused significant damage across parts of Germany and Poland. The storm, which hit the region over the weekend, brought with it high winds and large hailstones, some of which were reportedly the size of golf balls.
In Poland, the city of Warsaw was hit by the storm, which brought down trees and caused extensive damage to buildings. The hailstorm was particularly intense, with many residents taking to social media to share photos of large hailstones that had fallen in the city.
Emergency services in both countries were quickly mobilized, with teams working around the clock to clear debris and repair damage. However, the extent of the damage means that it may take some time for normality to be fully restored in the affected areas.
The storm and hailstorm serve as a reminder of the destructive power of nature, and the importance of taking precautions to protect against severe weather events. As climate change continues to cause extreme weather patterns around the world, it is likely that we will see more such events in the future, making it all the more important to be prepared.
Norway
A dam in southern Norway partially breached Wednesday after days of heavy rain that caused landslides and flooding in the mountainous region and forced downstream communities to evacuate, officials said.
Authorities had initially considered blowing up part of the Braskeridfoss hydroelectric dam on the Glom, Norway’s longest and fullest river. The idea was to prevent downstream communities from being flooded by using a limited controlled explosion to relieve pressure on the dam.
At least 1,000 people live in communities close to the river in the area, and authorities said they had all been evacuated before the dam began to collapse.
But the proposal was dropped after water later breached the structure, police spokesman Fredrik Thomson told reporters.
Officials now hope to see a gradual and even equalization of water levels, Thompson said.
Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre warned that flooding would continue to be a threat as excess water flows downstream.
An automatic system that was supposed to open floodgates to release the water has failed. The rapidly rising water overflowed over the dam and into the power plant itself, causing serious damage, officials said
