| Description |
|
The southeastern Austrian city of Graz was declared a disaster zone after sudden heavy rain Saturday, with appeals to the population not to allow children or animals out of the house. The sudden rain swelled the many streams around the Styrian capital, causing them to burst their banks and flood the city. All fire crews were called in to carry out pumping operations. Recent sunshine and temperatures of 30 degrees Celsius suddenly changed Friday into torrential rain and temperatures of 15 degrees. Cellars were flooded, branches of trees broke away dangerously and the snowline in nearby mountains fell to 1,500 metres.
