Torrential rains fell in Tauka and Rauchwart Bergen on Saturday. The fire department had a lot to do.
On Saturday, more than 60 liters per square meter rained in a very short time. This was not the first operation after a storm this year for the fire brigade in Rauchwart in the Güssing district. “We’ve had to deploy five times already,” Commander Dominik Zach reported.
This time it hit the Rauchwart Bergen settlement. Affected houses threatened to flood after the heavy rains and had to be secured with sandbags. A road was flooded and closed. Worse could be prevented together with the Stegersbach fire brigade. After the water receded, the clean-up work could begin quickly. “Thank you very much for the quick and careful work!” said Mayor Michaela Raber.
The brook became a raging river
There was a similar picture in Tauka (Jennersdorf district). The rain suddenly turned a small stream into a raging river. The Tauka and Minihof-Liebau fire brigades had their hands full with the flooding, but everything was cleared up in the end.
