Worst floods in Eastern Europe in a century

#1 Postby Matt-hurricanewatcher » Tue Sep 11, 2007 2:27 am

Worst floods in Eastern Europe in a century - 8 Sep 07 - Authorities issued severe
flood warnings across northern and western Austria on Friday after the Danube and other
smaller rivers burst their banks. The Kleine Ybbs river reached its highest level in a century.
At least seven people lost their lives and many others are missing as floods inundate parts
of eastern Romania. More than 1000 homes were after days of torrential rain affecting 47
villages and towns. The villages of Vrancea, Vaslui and Bacau were particularly badly hit
with many roads and homes washed away.

Interesting, seems liek the whole of Europe has been hit by flooding at least in one part of this summer, we here in the UK got hit hard in June and July and now the focus of this flooding has shifted further east into eastern Europe.
