This view of disasters and floods has left behind the mighty Ciran storm, which struck almost all of Europe these days. The balance of victims has reached 17 across the continent.
The images show the consequences in Camp Bizencio, not far from Florence. The Italian region of Tuscana has declared a state of emergency as it has the worst balance among all European states, of 7 victims.
Although the damages are being estimated, the balance amounts to at least 5m euros, according to preliminary estimates.
Three victims have been registered in Portugal as much as in France, places that rank behind Italy for the damage caused by this storm. 2 victims were also found in Belgium, while in Germany, the Netherlands and Spain were marked by 1 victim.
The Ciaraan storm is considered one of the most powerful to have hit the continent in recent decades with rapid winds that reached the record of over 200 miles per hour.
The storm leaves this Saturday, but during Sunday, another storm of lighter rainfall is expected across Europe.
Global warming, experts say, is adding such storms, as it is making extreme weather phenomena more frequent.
