And two day ago we had also *flash floods* in central Slovakia from strong storms.<br /><br />Now these events are going to be only more frequent and frightening in the future... greetings from Slovakia, <br /><br />AlexanderAlexander Achttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16845172528191878930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524070301101240472.post-21680359634422591222010-06-21T05:53:44.484-07:002010-06-21T05:53:44.484-07:00" I'm not sure if they were similar cloud..." I'm not sure if they were similar cloudburst type events."<br /><br />Well, the flash flooding in southeastern France seem likely to have been, as it was extremely severe, sudden, and localized.<br /><br />The rain in Spain wasn't falling mainly in the plain, though Madrid did get quite a bit. Asturias had widespread flooding, and there was a lot of rain in Andalusia. Pretty much the entire penninsula, I guess. So I think this was more a case of heavy widespread sustained rain rather than a cloudburst type event.dhogazahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13589109126483161671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524070301101240472.post-84352819494937957042010-06-21T03:05:40.291-07:002010-06-21T03:05:40.291-07:00The Slovak newspaper describes the rain as "s...The Slovak newspaper describes the rain as "strong", and the reports from the floods in France suggest likewise.<br /><br />This feels weirdly like an undergraduate physics lab gone well.afemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08364320934289732272noreply@blogger.com
