“In the second half of this week, a strong westerly wind is predicted, which will increase the risk of flooding of low-lying and coastal areas in the Rostov region as a result of surge events,” RIA Novosti quotes a message from the All-Russian Research Institute for Civil Defense and Emergencies (VNII GOChS).

It is noted that last week the forecast for flooding of settlements in the regions of Yakutia was fully justified.

In April, the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations for Udmurtia reported that in the village of Yagan, Malopurginsky district, eight adjacent territories were flooded due to flooding.
