Greece Floods: Deaths rise to 15; rescues continues from flooded villages (videos)
Huge problems continued in the flooded areas of the plain of Thessaly, Central Greece, on Monday, despite signs that the water level in the Pinios River was starting to subside even though very slowly. Storm Daniel may have stopped pouring rain in the area since last week, however, the tonnes of water from the mountains have landed in the plain and the rivers triggering unprecedented floods affecting thousands of people.

🌊 #Electric_Cars #EV catch #FIRE in #Florida after #FLOODING!?
🌊 In just the last couple of days after Hurricane #Idalia, two electric vehicles, one in Pinellas Park and a #Tesla in Palm Harbor, caught fire after the storm surge pushed a wall of #saltwater inland.
Carfax spokesperson Patrick Olsen said owners need to understand the fire risk doesn't go away after the vehicle dries out.
🌊 “The saltwater that is flooding can get into the battery and dry there and once it dries, it creates what federal #safety_officials call #bridges between cells, and that can lead to fires, and that those fires can come anywhere from days to #weeks_later.
And once an EV catches on fire, it is #incredibly_difficult to put it out.”

The death toll from severe flooding in central Greece rose to 10 people Friday, while another four remained missing, the country's civil protection minister said. Rescue crews in helicopters and boats ferried hundreds of people from inundated villages to safety.
Flooding triggered by rainstorms also hit neighbouring Bulgaria and Turkey, killing a total of 22 people since the rains began Tuesday.

How #climatechange can supercharge #hurricanes
Forecasting, #climate change, and coastal living are all changing how we experience hurricanes. Climate change is loading the dice on most #extremeweather phenomena. One of the clearest impacts of climate change is rising #temperatures and #sealevelrise making #stormsurges more severe and coastal #flooding more common and dangerous. https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/08/31/1078720/how-climate-change-can-supercharge-hurricanes/ #climatecrisis

«The horseshoe shaped weather pattern features a high pressure system – known to bring warm, clear weather – wedged between two "cut-off" lows – which trigger storms and rain.»
«...high sea surface temperatures in the Mediterranean Sea had contributed to the situation...
"I want to emphasise, the situation would not be this bad if the Mediterranean Sea were not so hot"»

“#BC.’s hot, dry #summer could be setting the province up for a catastrophic #flooding event similar to the one that occurred during the #AtmosphericRivers in November 2021.
The comments came during an update on current wildfire and drought conditions. Bowinn Ma, minister of emergency management and climate readiness, said weather in the weeks and months ahead will determine the potential for fall #flooding and whether drought conditions continue into next year.” https://mastodon.roitsystems.ca/@bcinfo/111025697811564145
