Disruptions due to flooding and severe weather ongoing in Emilia-Romagna Region as of early May 23 /update 3

23 May 2023 |
Weather-related disruptions ongoing across Emilia-Romagna Region, Italy, as of early May 23. Evacuations and disruptions ongoing.

Disruptions due to flooding, landslides, and other weather phenomena are ongoing across Emilia-Romagna Region as of early May 23.
A weather system in the Mediterranean brought heavy rainfall, strong winds, and thunderstorms across the region in recent days;
the heavy downpours have caused rivers to reach dangerous levels and triggered widespread flooding.
As of early May 23, reports indicate at least 15 flood-related fatalities in Emilia-Romagna Region, including six deaths in Forli-Cesena Province.
Several people are still missing. Thousands of emergency personnel are in place and have carried out hundreds of interventions since May 16, rescuing more than 600 people.
The heavy rains are easing, but river levels are still rising. Emilia-Romagna Region is still recovering from flooding early May when two fatalities occurred.

Some previously evacuated people have returned home; more than 26,000 people remain evacuated, mostly in Ravenna Province.
Emergency crews evacuated more than 36,000 people previously May 19. Impacted areas included Bologna, Cesena, Faenza, Ferrara, Forli, Ravenna, Riccione, and Rimini. Emergency services have conducted hundreds of rescue operations to aid those caught in the floods. Twenty-one rivers in Emilia-Romagna Region overflowed; the flooding has affected 41 towns and communities, with Bologna, Forli-Cesena, and Ravenna the worst affected. Authorities have registered around 280 landslides in 58 municipalities, including 120 severe landslides.

Reports indicate flooding and landslides in parts of the Abruzzo and Marche regions along the Adriatic coast. In Venice, authorities have activated the mobile barrier system designed to protect the city from flooding, the first time this has ever been done in May.

As always, please remember we are chatting on discord.
To avoid lots of in-race chatter here, please join us at https://discord.gg/KMEYZFwEE5

(topic paused for a few minutes...)

-------------------------------------------------- -------------

Since when are a few minutes a few hours?! The race thread is still closed.
Why close a race thread for an announcement?

So you are obliged now to go to Discord here if you want to ask / post something about the race!
A forum where the race thread is locked during and after a race!
I visit a forum to read and post something. Only when I want to chat I go elsewhere.

Agree. Enjoy the site but I’m not sure what’s going on re moderation at times.

I don’t see the problem with posting in the race threads during the race if people want to. If people want to use the chat then they can do that. Locking the thread seems bizarre.

Race thread is full of nonsense and just gives the mods a lot of needless work
