Yeah . The bad news is : "The Belgian weather forecast is the whole week rain" !

From the first floodings (only one (1) week ago ) are still more than 10000 + people homeless and 50000 cars are missing !
37 dead and lots are still missing...

Watched the videos . The poor people lost everything ...
Honestly ! I'm lost in words ...

It must also be expensive or impossible getting home insurance for the not so well off in the flood high risk areas and with the 'Act of God' clause.

That's for sure . Those people are in big financial issues .Because they lost everything !
They are still waiting for the investigations from their home insurances ...
Too much cases are going on , too much victims are screaming for help !

As we know : The home insurances won't build or buy them new homes .
A lot of victimes hired already lawyers in , to go in group court ...
It will take many years ...

Horrible situation for our Belgian (and German) friends!
The Belgian Government must now act and launch a plan of action to protect their citizens from future floodings.

As the Netherlands are probably even more vulnerable from river floodings, a mega multi billion euro program called 'room for the river' was commissioned and finalised recently. I think it gives us much more protection. I guess we all need to be ready for extreme situations!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_f...r_(Netherlands)

Prayers for Belgium.

I agree completely !
Over here in Belgium , It's mainly the rivers : Meuse , Ourthe ,Lesse ,Vesder, ect..
In the previous summer seasons it was the extreme heat , drought and dust .
Everything was burned by the sun and we prayed for rain and to get even more rain !
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 !

You guys in the Netherlands build the Delta-Works .
The Delta-Works is a series of construction projects in the Southwest of the Netherlands to protect a large area of land around the Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt delta from the sea.
As your land-level is below the sea-level . The Delta-Works were really necessary regarding the Dutch floodings of 1953 .
Even today the Delta looks really amazing . It's a great job !

Thanks for the concern !

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.

Yeah . The Belgian Ardennes are no joke . It's really wild ! !
Love it over there . Know everything over there .
And my ///M screams 8K + rpm's over there as well ...

I even drive to the "Lake of Bütgenbach" just for swim in a hot summer day !
You should go for it as well , but just be 'very carefull It's big ,very deep and cold .
You must be a good swimmer ! But everytime after a swim in the lake it feels like I'm reborn ...
The "Lake of Bütgenbach" => http://www.butgenbach.info/nl/beleve...n-buetgenbach/

Too bad , pity ! Last year it was a no-go with the COVID pandemic and now with the floodings It's even worse .

And after the floods , It's the high mud layer ...And the damage .

I'm so grateful to be in my house on a 'hill ...I'm fine .
Once again It's #disaster & #Unseen !

Thank you my good friend for the concern
