| I got the idea for this topic from a reality tv show .... ___________________________________________ Well the closest to any N.d.'s i've been is just a storm. I was bout 7 or 8 years old when it happened i think, i'm not sure. At bout 10 pm that night the wind started picking up (it was windy all evening) and became violent ripping down a few trees and the roof of a shop that was in front of our house (my cousin's house actually) and after some time it cut the power supply to our entire colony. Eventually the storm died,.. luckly it wasn't strong enough to cause any serious damage to anyone but it really scared the hell outta me :affraid: | |

| well.. it aint really a natural one. some weeks ago,there was a smaller construction nearby,and they drilled thru a gas pipe. They dint notice that,so the gas flew into the basement of a nearby block of flats. Later,someone rang the doorbell,and because of that lil electric shock,the whole thing exploded. Since then,they started the deconstruction of that building. | |

| I've been through the flood....in year 2000 my little town, San Mauro, was submerged by water, actually from the water of two different rivers, the Po and the Dora. I just went to bed, the rain was very heavy and in the areas closer to the river Po everyone was already flooded, but the authorities had told us we would be safe...well, I woke up at around midnight and I saw a BOAT in the road in front of my house!!! The road had turned into a river!!! There was about 1mt of water in the courtyard (obviously the power supply was gone), man I was so scared I couldn't sleep at all, I spent the rest of the night at the window, looking at the water.... | |

| Drought... Quite annoying in Aus but everyone here that lives in country areas puts up with it. I was only in a drought for a couple of weeks, because i was staying at my cousins place, but still now they don't get much rain. | |

| At this moment my town is in red-code alert of floods.Roman, Neamt county, country of Romania, is positioned at the confluence of 2 rivers: Siret and MoldovaBoth grew this past week 6-7 times their usual size and gathered alot of force from Ukraine and broke hundreds of bridges and dams along the way. Now they cross path a stone's throw from my city and the suburbs have been evacuated. I offered as volunteer, though the first time I went to help an army guy asked me if I am capable of swimming with 100kg in my back, I eventually went there with a city hall crew from my mom's office. Every single man in the city hall is stationed strategically all around the places the river meets populated places of the city's area, including the mayor. I just came back from delivering some coffee, bagels and sun-hats to them because they have been on guard for 40 hours now, doing whatever needs to be done. So far I've seen placed sand bags, hydraulic barges and pumps and a huge convoy of army trucks evacuating people from the endangered areas. I couldn't go too deep to the heart of the situation but I got some pictures with my Shine telephone of what I could see: ^^^ This is the only picture of Moldova I have made a few days ago, when the river was a bit smaller than it really is now, but still 3 times bigger than it ever should be. This is from Siret, going all over the village of Gadinti and some houses at one of the exits of my town: If the water rises 20 inches more the bridge I was on would crash, and the water-processing station which provides the sewer system and water supplies to my city would be flooded and blocked from working and we'll be on dry. Also, the concrete of the street was torn apart and broke, and water covered it. In the same pictures you can see rooftops of buildings barely making it outta the water. Anyway, it's pretty fucked up. I think I saw the entire police, army and fire department at the same place for the first time here. Tell me what u think!

| Give us your floods! I don't have any pics, but drought. Down here, we're on a coast so it's not too bad, we do have a little bit of a drought, but inland is where its hit hard. Farmers don't get enough rain which is highly needed for crops to grow. Without selling crops, farmers usually end up going out of business and end up having to sell their farms just to get money to buy food. I could go on but im kinda tired. I'll get pics of the droughts off google tomorrow. | |

| thanks man a new wave is rushing through, possibly the last one but it's coming fast, largest wave so far, it surpassed the Rachiteni dam and flooded Rachiteni village completely. Close to 3000 people evacuated so far and we got provisions form the national emergency reserves... just to keep u updated | |
