"A wave of bad weather has ravaged parts of #Italy and central #France, with storms and heavy rainfall expected batter to Italy's south until Tuesday.
On the Italian island of Sicily, emergency services rescued people from roofs of buildings and stranded vehicles, as #HeavyRain caused flash flooding.
In the province of Agrigento, the swollen Salto river breached its banks in several locations, inundating part of the coastal city of Licata."
The entire #Sahel region has been seeing #HeavyRain.
"Surging waters have burst through a #dam in eastern #Sudan, wiping out at least 20 villages and leaving at least 30 people dead but probably many more, the UN has said, devastating a region already reeling from months of civil war."

Report: Global #wine production worst in 62 years due to 'extreme #climate events'

"#Fires, #droughts and other conditions commonly associated with a changing global climate greatly contributed to making the world's 2023 wine production the worst in 62 years, industry officials have reported.
"A 'State of the World Vine and Wine Sector in 2023' report released Thursday by the France-based International Organization of Vine and Wine cites 'extreme environmental conditions' as a primary cause of a 10% drop in global wine production in 2023.
"John Barker, director of the wine organization, said 'drought, #ExtremeHeat and fires, as well as #HeavyRain causing #flooding and #fungal disease across major northern and southern hemisphere wine production regions" were primary factors in the decrease in global wine production.
"The 10% decrease is the world's steepest drop in wine production in 62 years, according to the industry report. The grape harvest was the worst reported since 1961.
"A 26% drop in wine production in #Australia and a 23% drop in #Italy made those nations the worst in 2023. #Spain lost more than 20% of its wine production, and #Chile and #SouthAfrica each recorded 10% drops."

Update to my #introduction because I missed a load of tags off. Things and people I'm into are .....
#TerryPratchett
#NeilGaiman
#StarTrek
#SchittsCreek
Superhero action movies - MCU and DC
#PlayStationGaming but I'm really bad at playing, I'm just there for the storyline. #GTA5, #LastOfUs, #RedDeadRedemption, #AssassinsCreed, and #HeavyRain are my top favs for that.
I'm gradually being introduced to anime, and YouTubers like #Ludwig, #OfflineTV, and #MarkRober 
Phew!
