A real disaster was Sunday's downpour in Volgograd. Just a couple of hours on the city fell two months of rainfall. Streams of water into the storm sewage system washed away a lot of gravel and sand, so its possibilities fell sharply.

The city literally began to sink. The water had to be pumped out of the tunnel in the Krasnooktyabrsky district, and on route No. 12 on Monday morning there were additional trolleybuses. Not only tramways but also railway tracks appeared to be filled. Electricians Shpal impregnation - Tractor Passenger and Tractor Passenger - Volgograd-1 were on a shorter route. Water flooded courtyards and parking. The staff of the SEC "Europe City Mall", "Komsomollo" and Voroshilovsky shopping center as they could, saved shopping halls and showcases with goods from the flood. Part of the water was collected by the technicians, part was collected by the personnel.

The water washed the slopes under the stadium "Volgograd Arena", exposing the mountains of construction debris. However, the stadium itself did not suffer. There are small leaks, but the shower did not cause any significant damage to the premises and communications of the complex..

An emergency was declared in the city. The communal workers worked percussion all night and on Monday to liquidate the aftermath of the disaster.

And weather forecasters say that Sunday's rainfall is just the beginning of the rainy season, which will last a few more days, though not in such quantity.

On Sunday the shower was covered and Sochi. Several private houses in the Adler district were flooded, and the fan zone had to be closed. The movement in the area of ??the shopping district "Farah" became more complicated.

A heavy shower flooded and resort Tuapse. The water level in the rivers rose to critical levels.

Weather forecasters warned of possible downpours, but no one imagined that everything would be so bad. In many streets it was possible to move only by swimming. Flooded private homes in several neighborhoods. In the city during a downpour there was a tragedy - the man crossed the street with a 3-year-old child in his arms. On the wet asphalt, he slipped and dropped the baby in a storm ditch, where he was caught by the flow of water. After a while, the child was found without signs of life.
