Around The World: Extreme Weather Emergencies Rage

Outbreaks of extreme weather were reported on four continents, as record floods and forest fires caused emergencies from the US and Russia to China and New Zealand.

Extreme weather emerges worldwide as floods burst dams and fires ravage forests

Colin Freeman says the spate raised concerns about the effect of climate change.

BBC 2O JUL 2021.






















Catastrophic outbreaks of extreme weather were reported on four continents on Monday, as record floods and forest fires caused emergencies everywhere from the US and Russia to China and New Zealand.

As Germany and lowland Europe attempted to recover from last week's devastating floods, firefighters in the US state of Oregon continued to battle the massive Bootleg Fire that has already blazed its way through nearly 500 square miles of tinder-dry woodlands.

At the same time, colleagues in Russia's Siberia region fought fires that have swathed nearly 50 cities in smoke, while in China, torrential rains in the north-west region of Inner Mongolia caused two reservoirs to burst their dams.

The spate of apocalyptic images has raised concerns about the effect of climate change, with environmentalists claiming that rising global temperatures make seasonal weather events far more volatile.


In Germany, where at least 160 people are now believed to have died in flooding since last Wednesday, officials defended themselves yesterday against criticisms that they had failed to respond adequately.

Speaking on a tour of flood-stricken areas, Horst Seehofer, the German interior minister, said it would be "completely inconceivable for such a catastrophe to be managed centrally".

In India, 35 people were killed as "monstrous" seasonal monsoon rains fell nationwide, triggering landslides and house collapses.

Around 30 of the fatalities were in three suburbs of Mumbai, where several houses crumbled in landslides after rain.

The extreme weather also hit Southern Hemisphere nations currently in winter, with New Zealand receiving the equivalent of one month of rain over the weekend.

A state of emergency was declared in the Buller District on the west coast of New Zealand’s South Island being hit by severe flooding, with thousands evacuated from their homes.
