“Mobile home dragged away” isn’t exactly an interesting part of this.
Yeah, uhm. The devastation is a bit worse than that…
A hydro power plant dam burst today (https://www.nrk.no/video/b946703e-6681-4520-8ca4-a0d0377d7a66), houses taken by mudslide or flood slides, houses and cars flooded, all major roads between the big cities, except one, is blocked or closed somewhere along the route.
Train tracks and a train bridge taken out. Roads wiped out.
They said in the beginning it was a “one in 25 years” flood, now it’s one in 500.
And it’s not really winds that are problematic, just the sheer amount of rain.
