- The Alpine nation of Slovenia is grappling with the aftermath of the worst flooding in memory. While in Spain and Portugal, wildfires rage amid southern Europe's summer heatwave.
EU Chief Ursula von der Leyen is heading to Slovenia today to offer support after flash flooding ravaged the Alpine country and claimed six lives.
Many European nations including Germany have sent specialists and emergency equipment to help Slovenia with the clean-up operation. DW's Rosie Birchard traveled to the region of Carinthia to meet some of those hardest hit by what’s been described as Slovenia’s worst-ever natural disaster.

Visited Slovenia: Ljubljana, Lake Bled and Bohinj. Slovenia is a beautiful country and very sorry to see that they are so effected by heavy flooding.
Mind Begs the Question:
To support and aid an Apartheid State
Democratic,Fascist?

Slovenija je dugo bila deo Jugoslavije i prinudno je postala deo Jugoslavije ali sasvim sigurno nije zemlja aparhejda niti kolevka fašizma.
@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings You have no mind whatsoever just rotten core full of hatred!!!
Hold on, Slovenians! You will get through it! Sending love from Ukraine!
God Bless Slovenia & God Bless Ukraine
Tnx man, we will, also you will!
Awh, I’m so sorry 😞 for them.
Bless them, hope they get international assistance.
We're so saddest but the living must be going, so be strong, patient and keep praying for living day by day. God bless Slovenians forever🙏
Didn't bless them much lately, did he?
Thanks
Pray for a brain.
@@joejohnson6327
I certainly will.
Maybe he will improve yours!
Oh my goodness. I'm so sad and sorry this has happened 😢💔💝
Thank you for the report and thank you all for your nice comments
Anyone reading this: think about where you live and the challenges you might face. Keep some water, food, power bank, rope etc. Even little things can make a difference! Love to Slovenia ❤
This is terrible I'm sorry Slovenian people
Yes , it is a terrible thing to be visited by Ursula Von Der Leyen... Last time her husband came to Greece we lost 320 million €

My God, you`re so right.
Thanks everyone for helping us! Greetings from Slovenia!
Experienced the massive recent floods in China. I know how the Slovenians feel. I hope the clean up is swift.
As a slovenian i hope you guys are ok in china!
I hope they recover soon.
WTF we in Czech Republic did not see SUN like in 14 days ... so much water, almost 4 tornadoes were formed ... and Spain was not spared as well?! WTF is happening with the weather this year its like a Autumn here in middle of Summer even mushrooms started to grow in forests and even on lawns!
The climate is changing. Makes the weather go weird.
There was also a tornado in Slovenia
Prayers and love from India ❤️. Stay strong guys 🥰
That's terrible news! I'm Sorry for Slovenians 😮
For all of us out here on the Internet: this is just a taste of things to come, everywhere on our planet. Sad, but true.
Natural disasters are old as Earth. Always were and always will be. All this is noting new.
And what you think all this trucks, excavator and helicopters run on? Without fossil fuels all this would be much worse and clenaning would take a lot, a lot longer.
Piękny kraj ,wspaniali ludzie...serce pęka tyle szkód.
Dang so sorry. That is such a beautiful village. The architecture is so much more interesting than anything we have in the US. If I could I would go there and help you.
Funny you say that. We consider that's sort of architecture as unfavorable departure from traditional stone built houses. Most of those homes were copy pasted during Yugoslavia era and are generally considered to be a bit of an eyesore.
@@qumpania Even so the architecture looks much better than the US. We intentionally build eyesores.
Damn... That country is a tue hiker's paradise and well worth a visit, sad it got hit :(
@MrTomtomtest
Thank you for your kind words!
I hope you will revisit us when Slovenia has recovered.
reminds me of the coverage from a year or 2 ago from the flooding in those small german town, especially that damn mud.
Jesus. That's awful. Do they have a official charity to help?
Red Cross and Karitas
Red Cross and Karitas
records and worst ever. they will keep saying this for the next 20 years
This is just one of many villages destroyed
This is a great report, I did not know anything about the flooding, wow there are some beautiful buildings there. I did know about the drought and heat and find it super cool to see people around that fountain with their feet in it. Why cut off water during a hot spell? Love to us all!
Bummer.
This is only gonna get worse in the coming decades.
Years, not decades.
I hope Laibach is safe. :(
Laibach is alright , except the canoe and kayak center ( completely destroyed)and some houses near sava and a bridge.
At least DW sent Rosie Birchard to lighten the mood :)
Everywhere the blokes from (Top Gear) The World Tour go, disaster follows.
Really sad
I just biked through there it`s doing just fine
Disudut wilayah Asia selatan juga penuh dengan perjuangan!...... apakah masih tetap ingin menentukan makanan, yang dinginkan kemanusiaan yang bebas??.....

Heavy rain caused flooding in Carinthia and Slovenia in July and August 23. It destroyed transport links and settlements. Extra water causes rivers overflow. Flooding is reason for avalanche, debris and swept away vehicles.
University of Bologna found cyclogenesis as strengthening of cyclonic circulation in atmosphere.
Surface weather analysis may help to make weather maps to be able to understand and forecast weather.
What is happening now is maybe climate change.
Certainly seems like climate change. The weather over the past few years in Slovenia has been quite different to what my grandparents, parents and I were used to.
Seems like whatever weather is happening isbstrogner and is sticking to an area for longer.
A few years back we had ice rain for a whole week. And the cold front just stuck still for 3 weeks straight. It ruined large swats of forests.
It looked like it was formed by magic in a fantasy film, but it was real so it felt incredibly eerie walking through it.
None of these events are in historic records in this scale.
We should speed up our preperations, both cleaning our energy use and prodiction, as well as preparing infrastructure for these extremes.
Every degree Celcius increases the amount of water vapor being transported by nearly 5%. So more precipitation can be expected. Increased extremes are more common.
This whole week Okinawa Japan has been under a typhoon which did a boomerang. Top wind speed at 50+m/s. It was hot, people were trapped indoor, no electricity or water. Gas were ration at 1000yen (10usd) per car. Tourists were stuck. They are still recovering. 500mm of water in an hour.
@HibikiKano
There have always been atmospheric changes in the history of planet Earth and other planets.
A lot of changes on planets happen due to where our Solar System is located when it is rushing through new and different areas of the Universe.
100, 300, or even 1000 years is a mere moment in our planet`s history.
Everybody is talking about climate change on Earth, but why is nobody mentioning the changes on other planets in our solar system?
The fact that we or our (great)-grandparents don`t remember this kind of weather doesn`t mean that the catastrophic events are unnatural or new.
So many civilizations have been wiped out in our solar system and maybe now it`s our turn.
It`s one thing to read about such events but quite another to be present when it is actually beginning to happen. We all know that these are just the beginnings and it is frightening.
The earth has thousands of years of forest jungles tropical forest that took thousand of years to grow...now in last 100 years goverments are clear cutting destroying trees that create constants in weather pattern...now the water in earths atmosphere wanders restlessly....hot and cold extremes surge heavens rivers...the sun keeps drawing water and plunging it....
Lucky enough to live in the kras so the water sinks. but wow.. this is just horrific
Carpenters will be even more sought after . No worries!
Australians have lived with this kind of disastrous event for generations, but it is getting worse each year. The science records prove we are in crisis. And it is Co2 in the atmosphere. That is all you need to know.
I woke up with my cell phone filled with messages, I didn't even know what's going on until I looked outside moments after and see all the messages of people around me having their properties destroyed in a matter of hours.
Europe has to keep cool because its near the north pole.
So what is Ursula Van Der Leyen actually going to do . F all I expect as she did in Belgium when Belgium was flooded a few years ago.
Breaking out everywhere. Accelerated climate change is intensifying.
All this water came to Croatia and floded my property. It's still under water after two weeks
The Seven Trumpets.
Polish army engeneering core is already under way with heavy equipment and trained personel, dw forgot to mention that while they stressed exactly these needs. German news after all...
Anyway i hope they will contribute to help these poor pepole.

Do our thoughts influence nature?
Indeed, our thoughts influence nature.
We live in a single global-integral system of nature, we influence it with our thoughts, and we receive feedback accordingly.
Similar to laws that operate on mechanical, electronic, electromagnetic and other material and biological scales, when we press, push or constrain something, we receive a response. Likewise, when we think positively or negatively about others, we accordingly receive a response.
The global-integral reality in which we live is a closed system, and we receive responses from it according to our attitudes to it.
Looooook behind the man !!! Concrete everywhere !! Please plant more trees in the cities 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 - then you have more shade
00000000 do you know there’s no climate change don’t worry about it. This is normal it’s the summer why are you so upset?
Voltar a ser nomadis
why talk about spain's heat? It's only 34 degrees. Tibet is 48 degrees today! And has been for about a week and will be for another week!!!
46 are predicted. Please don´t compare worse conditions in one country to those of others. Its not them against us.
He said that was the temp where *HE* was, not the temp of other parts of Spain. Above 40 in many areas.
Tibet at 48ºC all week!? Where in Tibet?
I'm not a climate change denier, but you're full of s!!!
@@ruprectmorales ladibyrd has a bird brain... Tibet has been burning up for a week & nobody's reporting on it... 🙄(S)he is every bit as deranged as climate change deniers.
When is Melania returning to help? It would be her Be(ing) Best.
Hopefully they " rebuild " in a location that's less prone to floods & natural disasters.....
That s hard, are you gona move whole towns into the hills above? Sure certain structures yeah, but it s probably easier to construct flood defences, canals etc.
Those towns have been there for hundreds of years. There is no place on earth immune from natural disaster.
It is a bit tricky to do. Those mountains look very steep and I wonder just how prone they are to land slips and avalanches (the weather could change again to make both problems more commonplace).
It may be better to take an inventory of land contours around the country and relocate those who live in the bottom of such steep valleys as this. Similar disasters are bound to happen in countries with such landscapes while we continue to have this type of extremism in the world's weather. Better to offer to move people out of such danger zones and refuse permission to build further housing there.
@@MilitantPacifist69 Yes- in areas with repeated Hurricanes ! Not all - but the smart one that are able to.

And in North we had sever hail storms and strong winds.
Isn't Canada on fire?
@@_Twink I was speaking about Europe.
@@artursbondars7789 interesting, Germany just had a heatwave and a whole river canal dried up. Another heat wave warning is in place for next week. Last month Denmark recorded their hottest day ever. Last year Sweden had it's first heatwave in 20 years.
Sure, bring up hail somewhere in like Norway. However it seems like you are trying to dismiss the very real problem of climate change.
@@_Twink I do not. I'm just saying that in Latvia we also had sever weather conditions. At first there was heatwave for couple of days, making some records, then came hail storms with strong winds. There was even tornado at Lithuania-Latvia border area.
@@artursbondars7789 oh alright. I had like 2 other people arguing with me there's an arsonist epidemic and climate change is a fraud. I was like so confused but apparently it's a thing. Some people can't believe unusually extreme weather can be linked to pollution. They even deny we have extreme weather at all 🙃 I digress. Yeah weather is getting wack all over the place. Hope Latvia and Lithuania the best 👌 👍
Not even on the North American news
Yang tersampaikan, tidak berhubungan dengan konten diatas.
I know X President Trumps current wife Melania is from Slovenia,🇸🇮 I sincerely hope she helps out financially.
They need a tremendous amount of assistance.
Don’t think her husband will allow that.
Lol you said "tremendous"
Please leave tacky politics out of this catastrophe. FYI Melanie is no longer the American first lady and perhaps you should concentrate more on the corruption of your current administration away from this report.
@@madness8556 There you have it.

Seluruh binatang itu harus tunduk kepada kemanusiaan!!...atas dari rasa kemanusiawianlah maka binatang-binatang itu masih mendapatkan tempat!!...lalu mengapa binatang-binatang itu sangat memperhatikan 'kemisikinan' dari habitat iblis-iblis yang jauh lebih biadap daripada binatang itu sendiri??.....alasan omong kosong dari binarang yang ingin tetap menyesatkan akal dari kemanusiaan, melalui cara memisah akal dari kemanusiaan itu sendiri........dengan hal yang sangat semu!!

Bukankah penindasan yang telah terjadi diwilayah Afrika Barat itu, adalah contoh hasil dari pekerjaan 'menentukan' itu ??....
You don’t know history or geography do you?
I don't see any rainbow colors so that leaves Canada out of helping a country in big big trouble, NOTHING TO SEE HERE ACCORDING TO OUR CRIME MINISTER
You're out too lunch, and Canada definitely stands with Slovenia 🇸🇮🤝 🇨🇦
Send more money to Ukraine 😅
Sounds like something that happen in America every year.
If Europe, and the "West" want to continue to thrive & not decay... they need to improve cooperation & internal support. External aid & investments should be 10% of what is focused on allies. Reputations are being defined. How much is Slovenia assisting shared objectives like Ukraine?
Slovenia has actually done a tremendous amount to help Ukraine for being such a small country. For example they gave a considerable chunk of their eastern block style air force to Ukraine. As well as converted Soviet tanks.
@@_Twink Awesome to hear, it's difficult to keep track of which countries are stepping up. All the more reason to assist them during their current storm struggles!
In terms of gdp Slovenia did help Ukraine a lot. We sent 28 tanks, 38 apcs, small howitzers, 30 humwees and smaller equipment.
They got flood but Germany risk getting nukes.
Poor old Ukraine.......cant win a trick
Poor Eastern-Europeans, can't catch a break these days.
SloveniA IS NOT EASTERN EUROPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
slovenia isnt in eastern europe. learn a lesson or two.
They are east of Italy but definitely but not "eastern Europe" unless you Consider the Czech Republic "eastern Europe" which I'm pretty positive doesn't apply. Though I think Croatia and Hungary are, so it's right on the edge.
But Europe will announce military aid package to Ukraine
Defending freedom is important.
Because we want Ukraine to join civilised and prospering Europe, not to see it go up in ruzzian flames.
Slovenian here, people like you need to seriously get a mental check. Slovenia is nowhere near the painful gutter Ukraine is in right now, you are insanely dumb to think that instead of Ukraine all that aid should instead be sent to Slovenia. We are already getting help from Europe. In our disaster 6 people died, and in Ukraine much more than that die every single day.. don't be ignorant please
@@moravianlion3108 Pfff sure
For a long time, the weather has been, at times, destructive. But just in the last few years, it seems that the weather has truly become mankind's enemy, and not in any way a "friend", either drought, that causes wildfires or a flood, as here in Slovenia, that also may have hail anywhere from 2-4 inches big, as in Virginia, (USA) on August 8, 2023.
But here is something to consider, of Jesus, when on a boat on the Sea of Galilee, whereby a severe storm suddenly arose, and even Peter, who was an experienced fisherman and had dealt with many storms, was frantic and ran over to Jesus who was sleeping in the stern, saying "Teacher, do you not care that we are about to perish", so that Jesus awoke from his sleep and said to the storm: "Hush ! Be quiet !" so that in an instant the wind abated a great clam set in.(Mark 4:35-39)
Jesus gave a preview of what the weather will be like from the beginning of his Millennial reign onward (Rev 20:4-6), forever, under the control of God's heavenly Kingdom, so that the weather will never be destructive again, but genuinely pleasant, truly enjoyable, for the "meek" ones that will "inherit the earth" that has been transformed into a paradise during Jesus Millennial reign by God's Kingdom (see Matt 6:10), so that when the evil-doer to one side of Jesus is resurrected back to life, he will find a beautiful paradise earth with perfect weather.(see Luke 23:43)
In addition, the devastating effects of sin or imperfection, that brings on sickness and death, will also be done away with (along with the beastly political system, the religions of the world called Babylon the Great and the greedy commercial system), as Revelation 21:3-5 shows, so that the "meek" ones can enjoy a meaningful life "in the abundance of peace......forever".(Ps 37:11, 29)
