In January (Storms Henk, Isha and Jocelyn), March Storm Nelson (2024), May, June, September (Storm Boris) and October 2024, several European countries were affected by severe floods caused by prolonged heavy rains. Several were catastrophic, causing deaths and widespread damage due to overflowing river basins and landslides. Deaths occurred in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Poland, Germany, Romania, Spain, Austria, France, the Czech Republic, Italy, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Slovakia.

Impact

[edit]

Austria

[edit]
Flooded Vienna River on 15 September 2024

Concurrently with flooding in Germany in early June, rising river levels on the Danube River reached 6.86 meters on the morning of 4 June, causing it to burst its banks in Linz, submerging areas close to the river. All river traffic along the Danube in the Lower Austria area was halted.[1]

The flooding caused significant disruptions to the 2024 European Parliament elections, particularly in the province of Styria. The heavy rainfall rendered several polling stations in Deutschfeistritz, Hartberg-Fürstenfeld District, and Graz inaccessible or destroyed, necessitating rapid responses from local authorities to ensure that voters could still participate in the election process. In addition, The Übelbach river burst its banks due to the intense rainfall, causing mudslides that destroyed houses and washed away cars in Übelbach.[2] Five people, including one firefighter on duty, died in Lower Austria.[3] On 15 September, a skier was found dead under a snowdrift in Untertauern,[4] while another person was buried by an avalanche on 13 September at Karwendel and remains missing.[5]

Bosnia and Herzegovina

[edit]

Southern Bosnia and Herzegovina was affected by flooding due to torrential rain on the night of 3–4 October 2024. Several towns were rendered inaccessible along with surrounding villages, as roads, bridges, and railways were blocked by flood waters and landslides.[6] Reportedly, houses collapsed in flash floods while residents were inside.[7] The floods killed 26 people and left 40 missing.[8][9][10]

Croatia

[edit]

According to Croatian authorities, the Danube was expected to crest on the Croatia–Serbia border around the weekend of 21–22 September.[11] On 13–14 September, the low brought a temperature drop of up to 20 °C (36 °F) to Croatia, causing an unseasonable snowfall in the mountains.[12] Flash flood warnings were issued for 3–4 October.[13] Gračac and Krk broke their all-time records for daily rainfall, at 249 and 192 mm (9.8 and 7.6 in), respectively.[14] The rivers Sava, Kupa and Odra were on the rise due to rainfall. Localised flooding was reported in Ogulin on 4 October[15] and 23 houses were flooded in the Karlovac area during the following night.[16]

Czech Republic

The 2024 floods in the Czech Republic caused insured property damage equal to around 8.4 billion czech crowns (€331.1 million), but insurance company estimates[17] place the damage as high as 19.3 billion czech crowns (€761.5 million). From a financial perspective making it the second worst disaster in the countries history, second only to the 2002 floods.

The flooding began on 13 September after heavy raining. Over 200 rivers were reported to spill over their banks as of 15 September. The most critical situation was in North Moravia, especially in the region of Jeseníky mountains, followed by North-East Moravia where thousands of people had to be evacuated. Jeseník and Opava were among the worst hit places where a few houses were destroyed by the overflown river. The evacuation operation there started already on the night of 14/15 September in the major residential area of Kateřinky. The biggest city which was flooded, Ostrava, was affected only in some parts; the damages are estimated to be billions of crowns.[18] There was an ongoing threat in handful of places in the South Bohemian Region. For the whole country, four people are reported missing, thousands were displaced and around 250 thousand left without electricity.[needs update] Several roads and railroads were closed and water also leaked into 1 station of Prague Metro, but it remained operational.

On 15 September, Martin Kupka, the Czech transport minister, announced that the railway operation around Ostrava region, one of the major regions in the country, will remain suspended for at least a week to eliminate the damage caused by heavy rain and following floods.

On 14 September five people disappeared in the water, four of them drove their car into a river in Lipová-Lázně, one was found alive. One person fell into a usually small and calm creek while trying to clear driftwood off of a bridge in Jankovice (Uherské Hradiště District). On 15 and 16 September, four people died in the Moravian-Silesian Region[19] and another was killed in Kobylá nad Vidnavkou.[20]

France

[edit]

At least one person was killed when 1,300 homes were affected by floods in northern France as a result of Storm Henk in January.[21] Eight departments in northern and western France were put under flood alert.[22] Particularly affected was the town of Arques in the Pas-de-Calais department.[23] The River Aa overflowed following heavy rains.[24] On 10 March, five people were killed by floods following violent storms across southern France,[25] with seven others reported missing.[26] On 31 March, heavy rainfall lead to the severe flooding of the town of Montmorillon.[27] Floods in Central France affected the departments of Yonne and Saône-et-Loire in April.[28] In June, heavy rains caused flooding in Eauze, Montréal, and Fourcès in Gers.[29]

Germany

[edit]
Main article: 2024 Germany floods

Flooding in Germany caused at least nine deaths, insured property damage of €2.2 billion, and over 3,000 displaced individuals.[30][31][32][33][34]

In May 2024, over 100 liters of rain per square meter came down in less than 24 hours over Saarland. A woman in Saarbrücken was injured during an evacuation and later died, while a Red Cross worker died following a rescue operation from heart failure.[35]

In June 2024, significant flooding struck Southern Germany, striking the most in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria. Dozens of villages had to be evacuated across Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria due to the straining and failure of several dams and dykes caused by the persistent heavy rainfall.[36] Among the rivers whose water levels significantly rose include the Danube, the Isar, the Zusam, the Weilach, the Ilm, the Paar, the Schmutter,[37] the Roth, and the Leibi.[38] Many places had more rainfall in 24 hours than their whole monthly average, and in many areas, the water reached levels that were present only "once in a century" according to the Bavarian Flood Information Service.[39]

An inflatable rescue raft containing four firefighters capsized while evacuating citizens in Pfaffenhofen from floodwaters from the overflowing Ilm River, resulting in the death of one firefighter.[40] Another firefighter was missing, as well as a woman in Schrobenhausen which was later found dead. Carriages of a train were derailed by a landslide caused by the heavy raining near Schwaebisch Gmund. None of the 185 passengers were injured.[41]

On 4 June, a 57-year-old woman lost control with her car on a flooded road. She was later found dead.[32] The Falkenstein Castle in Upper Bavaria partially collapsed to the north due to heavy rainfall, causing the evacuation of 50 residents under the castle complex.[42] On 5 June, a 79-year-old woman which was missing since 2 June was found dead.[31]

Hungary

[edit]
Peaking at downtown Budapest

Rainfall and upstream flooding from Germany and Austria caused several tidal surges along the banks of the Danube and the Rába in Hungary starting on 6 June 2024. The Danube tidal surge forced closure of the Budapest Public Road along a section of the "lower quay of Buda between Mozaik Street and Rákóczi Bridge" and a part of "the lower quay of Pest between Népfürdő Street and Közraktár Street". The "main building" of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics was closed due to elevated river levels.[43][44]

By 10 June 2024, alerts were activated along 912.4 kilometers of river sections, with the highest degree alerts in place along 10.42 kilometers of these sections. The Rába faced record water at 4.22m at Szentgotthárd, initiating a third-degree flood alert and prompting the National Water Management Directorate (OVF) to mobilize over 400 staff members to build up extensive flood defense efforts, including placing 120,000 sandbags to construct a 2.5 km flood barrier in Körmend. The Strém and Pinka rivers nearly received the monthly rainfall average in six hours, the latter recording its highest water level ever at 5.08m in Felsőcsatár.[45]

Overflow in the Danube and Rába in turn caused several mosquito breeding sites to arise in Sopron, Debrecen, and Miskolc, requiring the National Directorate General for Disaster Management to use biological control to prevent further spread of mosquito-borne disease.[46]

As of 17 September, 500 kilometres (310 mi) of the Danube is under flood warnings in preparation due to rising waters. In Budapest, the city government handed out 1 million sandbags to citizens. Train services between Budapest and Vienna were cancelled.[11] The lower half of Margaret Island was closed off.[47] On the 21st of September, 2024 the Danube peaked at 830 cm. [48]

Italy

[edit]

Concurrently with the late June flooding in Switzerland, the Valle d'Aosta and Piedmont regions in Italy were impacted with significant flooding. Approximately 200 residents in the Valle d'Aosta region had to be evacuated by helicopter from their homes in Cogne due to flooding and mudslides. Around 120 people in the Piedmont region were evacuated from Alpine villages following torrential rain.[49]

In September 2024, flooding occurred in Pescara.[50] Important floods also occured in Marche region.[51]

On 17 September, a firefighter died in Foggia when his service car was swept away by a raging torrent on state road 90 connecting San Severo to Apricena.[52] That same day, a two-seater plane with three French nationals on board crashed into the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines due to bad weather,[53] killing the occupants.[54] On September 24, a German elderly woman and her infant nephew went missing after a river overflooded in Montecatini Val di Cecina, in the Tuscany region;[55] a volunteer for the Italian Red Cross died during a traffic collision amid rescue operations.[56] Due to Storm Atena, four mountaineers lost their lives during a climb on Mont Blanc, they were all found frozen to death.[57][58]

On 18 and 19 September, major flooding occurred in Emilia-Romagna, around the same areas affected by the deadly floods of May 2023.[59] The rivers Marzeno and Lamone overflooded in Romagna, causing the evacuation of more than 1,000 people.[60] Several landslides occured in the Apennine Mountains area.[61][62][63][64] Important floods also occured in Marche region.[65]

On October 17, 2024, in Liguria, flooding in Sori, Recco and Rapallo due to heavy rains, a mushroom hunter died in the woods of Borzonasca, where heavy rains fell and on October 18, 2024, the Entella overflows in Chiavari.[66][67][68][69] On 17 October 2024, the train station of Siena, in Tuscany was flooded after heavy rains.[70]

In the night between 19 and 20 October, a severe flood hit the city of Bologna, in Emilia-Romagna region. In only six hours, more than 150 mm of rain fell, the same amount of rain which usually falls in two months,[71] causing the overflow of several streams and rivers. A 20-year-old man, reported missing overnight after his car was washed away when the Zena river broke its banks, was found dead in the early morning.[72] More than 3,000 people were evacuated through Bologna metropolitan area.[73] It was the third time in less than 17 months that the region was affected by a major flood.

On 26 October 2024, in Liguria, the Bormida in Carcare and the Quiliano flooded. A person is missing in the municipality of Arenzano, dragged by a landslide with the car first into the Lissolo stream and then into the Lerone.[74] Several areas flooded between Pisa and Livorno, 15 people rescued.[75]

From 11 to 13 June, heavy flooding caused by torrential rain severely affected the regions of Costa Blanca, Murcia and Mallorca in Spain. Heavy flooding in Murcia prompted 113 emergency calls, requiring the local Emergency Coordination Centre to respond to 324 issues. Damage by heavy rainfalls were exacerbated by inadequate drainage and road blockages caused by fallen trees and other debris. In Calasparra, a person trapped in their car while attempting to cross a flooded road was rescued by the fire brigade and taken to the hospital with hypothermia.[104]

In Mallorca, Storm Tamara caused 71.8 mm of rainfall in four hours at the Palma Airport, flooding its runways and leading to its temporary closure.
