Austria experienced severe flooding over the weekend due to record-breaking rainfall, particularly impacting Vienna and the Alpine regions. In the Döbling district of Vienna, 110 liters of rain per square meter fell, marking the highest summer total in 152 years. A woman was critically injured when she was swept under a bus by the floodwaters, prompting emergency services to lift the vehicle to rescue her. The heavy rains caused significant disruption to transport, with over 450 calls for assistance to fire services and interruptions to multiple train lines. Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer acknowledged the extensive damage and commended the efforts of officials working to manage the crisis. While some areas faced devastating storms, others, like Vienna-Favoriten, recorded minimal rainfall, illustrating the uneven impact of the weather.
