Europe NOW! Huge Storms Hit Germany and Netherlands! Flooding Devastates Towns!
On May 2, storms with thunder and torrential rains hit several European countries.
In Germany, storms caused significant damage to parts of Baden-Württemberg. After a severe thunderstorm, the Klingenburg River overflowed, flooding several settlements. The city of Bisingen in the Zollernalb district was particularly hard-hit. The city center and market square were submerged, making movement within the city practically impossible and very dangerous for several hours. Residents reported that such a storm hadn’t occurred in Bisingen for 40 years. “The scale of destruction is enormous,“ said Mayor Roman Weizenegger.
The city of Albstadt also suffered significantly from the flooding.
Hundreds of emergency calls were received, and a police helicopter was deployed to assist the affected.
In other parts of Baden-Württemberg, there were also strong storms with heavy rainfall and squalls, and in some cases, even hail.
The strong storms also struck the federal state of Hesse and its largest city, Frankfurt am Main. In some places, up to 50 liters of rain per square meter fell within a few hours, causing chaos in the region.
Roads, streets, vehicles, and basements were flooded. Several hospitals were affected, with Markus Hospital flooded and water leaking into the intensive care unit at Bethanien Clinic.
The storm also caused serious disruptions at Frankfurt Airport, paralyzing operations for about two hours, with around 100 flights canceled.
A troubling incident occurred in Hofheim am Taunus: a train collided with a fallen support structure for power lines, which was apparently damaged by a fallen tree during the storm. Fortunately, no one was injured.
Storms also swept through Bavaria. In Arnstein, in the Main-Spessart district, heavy rain caused streets to flood to a meter’s height, and some basements were flooded to the ceiling. Several villages were cut off by water.
The fire brigade made over 100 flights in the Bamberg and Forchheim area, where basements and underpasses were particularly hard-hit. In Lower Franconia, a tragic incident occurred as a man died from electrocution in his flooded basement during the hurricane.
The Netherlands were also affected by the storms.
Limburg province experienced severe thunderstorms and downpours, with Venlo and Heerlen particularly hard-hit. North of Venlo, over 70 mm of rainfall was recorded locally, causing flooding in several places in the province.
Due to lightning strikes, railway traffic between Weert and Roermond was suspended.
Rijkswaterstaat’s water reservoir overflowed in Valkenburg, flooding several homes. The municipality of Meerssen reported that some roads were covered with gravel and mud due to the huge influx of water.
Several houses were damaged by lightning strikes, with one completely engulfed in flames after a fire broke out on its straw roof.
In Berg en Terblijt, several homes were damaged by flash flooding.
The extreme rise in temperatures and the evaporation of vast amounts of water lead to increased storm activity on the planet. As a result, there is an increase in the number of thunderstorms, precipitation, and strong winds. This poses a serious threat and leads to even greater destruction, losses, and loss of human lives.
At the “Global Crisis. The Responsibility“ forum, information was provided about the real causes of such catastrophic climate change observed worldwide in recent years, as well as a proposed solution to the climate problem, which could be implemented through the international scientific community’s collaboration. We recommend familiarizing yourself with this information.
