The weather is going crazy. Europe is suffering from the heat – Canada’s roads are currently under water. Four people, including two children, were missing on Saturday (local time), Canadian media reported based on the police.
“We’ve had three months of rain in less than 24 hours. The rain came fast and heavy,” local media quoted Tim Houston as the prime minister of the stricken province of Novia Scotia. “Our climate is changing, that is evident around us,” he added. In May and June, fierce wildfires also raged in the southeastern province of Novia Scotia.
Cars swept away by water
The heavy rain started on Friday. The two missing children were reportedly in a car that was hit by the floods. Three other prisoners managed to get to safety, police said. The other missing persons are a youth and a man. Her car was also hit by the water. More detailed information was therefore not initially available.
Houses, bridges and roads have been damaged by the flooding, local media reported. Meanwhile, about 70,000 people in the region were left without electricity and hundreds were asked to leave their homes. A state of emergency was declared for the entire province of Nova Scotia on Saturday.
At the same time, hundreds of wildfires are still raging in Canada. The country is experiencing the worst wildfire season in its history. Parts of the country are experiencing extreme heat and drought. According to the authorities, more than 100,000 square kilometers of forest and other landscapes have already been burned. The fires also created apocalyptic images: New York, for example, was temporarily shrouded in a dense yellowish veil of smoke that moved south. (SDA)
