Areas of Hungary, Romania and the Ukraine are at risk from three rivers the Tisza, Tur and Szamos which have been swollen by heavy recent rain and melting snow. The Tisza, Hungary's second largest river, rose by over six metres at the weekend as a result of rapidly melting snow and two days of rain in neighbouring Ukraine. A state of emergency has been declared in Hungary after flood waters forced the evacuation of thousands of people. On Tuesday, more than 7,000 people were evacuated from their flood-threatened homes in eight villages, the local news agency MTI reported. Among them were hundreds of people evacuated from the village of Kispalad, which is adjacent to Hungary's boarders with Ukraine and Romania, after floodwaters broke through a dyke. In Romania, about 1,600 people have been evacuated from their homes in 80 villages.

Flash Floods and Hail property and personal devastation Cases involving either slow-moving thunderstorms or a series of storms which move repeatedly across the same area (sometimes called train-echo storms) frequently result in flash flooding. The total number of flash flood deaths has exceeded tornado fatalities during the last several decades. Photograph by: NWS Two factors seem to be responsible for this: public apathy regarding the flash flood threat and increased urbanization. When concrete replaces soil, rain water will run off rather than soak in. Flash flood producing rainfall has made this type of dramatic rescue attempt (pictured above) all too familiar, especially in urban areas and popular mountain camping spots. Another danger associated with thunderstorms, especially to personal property, is hail. This hailfall occurred in Altus, Oklahoma in 1982 and was accompanied by several tornadoes . Hail causes more monetary loss than any other type of thunderstorm-spawned severe weather. Photograph by: NSSL Annually, the United States alone suffers about one billion dollars in crop damage from hail. Hail rarely kills people, but these were hollow words in China in May, 1986 when 100 people were killed, 9,000 injured, and 35,000 homes destroyed by an intense hailstorm.

An adult woman died late Sunday afternoon, and a second woman died of injuries Monday afternoon, according to Capt. Jack Fox of the San Bernardino County Fire Department. Three people were airlifted Sunday to hospitals in the area. Two elderly victims were evacuated and also transported Monday. Dogs were used Monday to search for bodies in the wreckage left by the flash flood, which sent a wall of water, mud and boulders through the mountain hamlet. Fourteen homes were destroyed and debris choked the main thoroughfare of the town in the San Bernardino Mountains.

document.write(''); The Floods That Carved the West In a great geological catastrophe, a giant lake exploded through an Ice Age dam, and its waters swept across the Pacific Northwest; awesome signs of its passage are still visible to this day Fifteen thousand years ago, during the last Ice Age, a glacial dam collapsed in what is now northern Idaho, releasing the waters of a giant inland sea known as Lake Missoula. Five hundred cubic miles of water rampaged westward at 60 miles an hour in a torrent flowing with ten times the volume of all the rivers on earth. The flood carved canyons, gouged out enormous plunge pools, made rivers like the Snake and the Willamette run backward and scoured the earth of eastern Washington right down to bare basalt rock. The flood may have happened not just once, but many times, as the glacier periodically crept forward again to recreate the lake. Today the landscape of the Pacific Northwest still bears the signs of these cataclysms: the flood-scoured scablands of eastern Washington, giant rocks near Portland transported all the way from Idaho by the flood, potholes and plunge pools dug by waterfalls that would have dwarfed Niagara many times over. Today both government and private organizations are exploring the idea of creating a kind of tourist trail, so that visitors to the region can learn the story of the flood, and see the enormous footprints that it left behind.

Though governments at every level work to reduce the risk of floods, the first line of defence always rests with the individual. Each of us has a responsibility to protect our homes and families to the greatest extent possible. By planning ahead and taking sensible precautions, you can do your part to minimize flood damage. Flood threats to particular areas can usually be forecast in a number of ways: by constant evaluation of rising water tables that result from heavy rain through surveys of snow conditions in river drainage basins by meteorological observations and forecasts. Flash or sudden flooding, in which warning time is extremely limited, can result from other causes such as earthquakes, tsunamis or tidal waves, hurricanes. violent storms or bursting of dams. In all cases, local government authorities try to keep residents informed of developments in areas most likely to be affected by flooding. Regular media advisories will recommend actions people should take to limit or prevent disaster. As the need arises, more detailed instructions by municipal or provincial authorities will be given.
