This year that changed completely . One month ago we got 2 supercell tornados in the Belgian Ardennes .
The tornados wiped out entire villages ...And now the water is there with crazy floodings !
What ? Tornados and floodings in Belgium ?
Yeah , that's for sure !
#Unseen !
Actually, the Ardennes is a wild and formidable forest. It might look like a small area for people from the US, Canada, Australia or Russia but boy it is rough and unpredictable.
In my younger days I did an extensive survival training here and I learned to respect the forest. During some deep canyoning I even freaked out. It took the guides an hour to get me to the surface. I was literally frozen in a pitch-black underground tunnel with an only max. 3 feet high ceiling.
It was a good humbling experience for my big ego though.
