Floods in parts of northern Europe after heavy rains • FRANCE 24 English 

Earth is going through a massive change... Ask some scientist and that person will tell you what is going on....

In India it is summer season but rains are falling like rainy season

Thank you for the info

😢 the world, our house is suffering

WOW. your are dumber then a rock.

Interesting that you say that, because I actually went for a walk today here in southwest Germany and saw all the flooded strawberry fields thinking, man that's alot of damage 😢

The EU has trade with the whole world, so how are we in a food crisis?

No problem they fixed since last year. Shown the middle finger to all farmers.

That's exactly why they do this.. they even set a limit, farmer's can only grow crops untill 1st of October

That's what we had before here in Germany too. But knowing this kinda frustrates me, when I visited Stockholm for the first time at the end of April, it was snowing ❄️😂had a great time tho.

Same in UK

The Jetstream is not moving like it should be

How can they do that when people are attacking them? Have you not seen German farmers trying to lynch Green politicians?

Sarcasm or jokes are not appropriate in this situation.

Ah yes. Nothing says climate protection like shutting off all your nuclear power plants and instead relying on brown coal for your energy production. Smart move.

It's hard to change decades of Conservative blocking of renewables in a few months. Even now coalition partners put the break on.

@@halberderdier8073 💯

the geographies are different. 40cm in non-tropical lattitudes is absolutely ridiculous.

@@SebinMatthew excuse you, he said FIVE METERS

​@@SebinMatthewbro, with all due respect, you don’t understand geography🤭

True but for the locals in the regions, this is the second flooding in 3 years which is not normal for these area.

Moezel could rise 4m so almost the same

If he hadn't come people would complain, too.

In the meantime, they should invest in a better water drainage system.

Ja foi esse tempo......

Stoppen wir Begradigung der Flüsse, Abholzung auf Hanglagen, Versiegelung der Flächen, Bewohnen in ehem. Auenwäldern usw.

This is nothing new. Climate has always fluctuated. There are documented floods going back to 1200's, with insane amounts of casualties back then. Many of them returning on a yearly basis.

Depends on where you are.

No why?

Dude it rains more because a warmer atmosphere holds more water vapor (about 7% more per degree of warming). Thats due to the "Clausius Clapeyron" equation. Plus warmer temperatures lead to more water evaporation.

And you, unless you live in the mountains, I guess?

The heavier rain is mostly condensed water in a warmer climate. Yes, melted ice increases the amount of water to condense and then rain down, but on a global scale im sceptic if this part of global warming plays a part here.

Please don't blame rising sea levels for everything and educate yourself, otherwise you'd look like (with great respect) an ignorant . The cause of the floods was due to what's known as a "Low-Pressure Sandwich" (otherwise known as a Storm Sandwich, an area of low pressure sandwiched by high pressure on 2 sides) Basically, an area of a large wind system that rotates about a centre of high atmospheric pressure (otherwise known as an anti-cyclone) acts as a wall and prevents wind, clouds and any type of precipitation from passing. Low pressure magnifies and enhances cloud formation (eventually turning to thunderstorms during the spring and summer). So when an area of Low-Pressure is sandwiched between two anti-cyclones, all the rain that could've formed would be concentrated on the Low-Pressure system. In this case, the Low-Pressure system over Western Europe was sandwiched between two anti-cyclones, one above the Atlantic Ocean around Lat.: 48°13'N / Lon.: 23°33'W, and the second one was above eastern Europe. So all the rain that formed couldn't hvae move as anti-cyclones prevented these storms from moving anywhere else which concentrated all the rain on a single spot. Now whats scary is that the CAPE index (The amount of energy present in the atmosphere that can be used for convection) was only between 100-800J/kg when these storms happened. During the summer much more energy (1000+J/Kg) can be present which means if the same Storm sandwich happens to occur during the summer in temperate regions, you'd become thankful and see how damaging they could get.

Warum kaufen dann Milliardäre in der ganzen Welt Inseln auf?

Well that's a new one 😂

​@@mrcool7140not really, often dry and sunny

Start raining tonight..

Every county where its cold they call it north where its warm they call is south cuz if she sad west, Spain and Portugal was also included 🫶

Hot and sunny 🌞 in the UK

Learn French

And many farmers, together with right wing nutjobs are still protesting for all green policies to stop. Green politicians have become targets in germany.

​@@edbouhl3100Where are you at in the USA, if I may ask?

Yes... People should own the damage done... Humans are the culprits for Sixth Mass Extinction... Let's prepare ourselves for the year 2030.

Yeah be blessed belgium its just rain no hot

Where would they go? the situation is just as bad if not worse in pretty much every other country.

@@Melior_Traiano where their money can be hidden.

Absolutely. 👍 EARTH IS CHANGING AXIS

Yes, all the time for the last 14 billion years.😂😂. Let's face it. The world will continue, even when we die out.

Even if it is the end for you doesn't mean it's the end of everything 😅
