Venice under the water
In Venice, strong winds of scirocco, as well as floods in the lagoon, caused the flood called "Acqua Alta". In Venice, you usually have high water, but Monday's situation was as critical as it was rare. Mayor Luigi Brugnaro showed himself in a video in front of St. Mark's Square – behind the raging waters.
70% of the historic old town is flooded. And the water in the UNESCO World Heritage city should continue to increase. Brugnaro called on all residents to stay at home.

Genoa closes ports due to bad weather in Italy
All ports have been closed in the northwestern region of Liguria. The ships that arrive must wait until the end of the storm off the coast, said Monday evening in Genoa the regional president Giovanni Totti. The airport of Genoa is also closed.

After all, Tuesday, the weather should improve a bit, but warned the meteorological service 3B Meteo new storms in the northwest.
Highest warning of South Tyrol
In South Tyrol, Civil Protection issued the highest alert message, meaning that a "catastrophic event" was possible. "The soil can only absorb a little more water," said the fire department. This increases the risk of new landslides. The rivers will probably continue to grow.
On the highway between Brenner and Vipiteno, several cars were hit by a landslide on Sunday, but no one was seriously injured. In the photos, we could see cars stuck in the brown mud.
