On Saturday evening the Tyrolean Stubai -Valley was again hit by serious storms: this time Fulpmes was mainly hit. Two bridges were tired away by floods. Videos show the forces of nature, the consequences of which were still visible on Sunday. The country and geosphere Austria now spent another weather warning.
Shortly after 7.30 pm the Fulpmes Fire Brigade was warned on Saturday evening. The otherwise harmless Margaretenbach had become a furious Sturzbach due to a storm. “In the area above the Margaretenbach in the Serles area, it had rained heavily and he was praised,” said FF Commander Manuel Gleinser.
Floods burst bridges
The Margaretenbach then swallowed up threatening and brought a lot of material – debris and tree trunks – to the valley. The result: he tore two pedestrian bridges – one in the upper area and one shortly before the confluence with the Ruetz. Fortunately there were no people on it. The police also said, “Nobody was injured.”
The floods show videos on Facebook:
Meadows flooded
As a result, the current flooded the meadows over the confluence with the Ruetz. Memories of a devastating storm from three years ago woke up. Also on Sunday the consequences of the violent storm could still be seen, such as the current photos of Fulpmes Show.
Unfortunately this key can continue. For today, Sunday, afternoon to tomorrow, Monday morning, Geosphere Austria brought a heavy rain and thunderstorm -warning (warning level “Oranje”, level 3 of 4) for the region between the southern Stubai Alps and the Achterste Zillertal.
According to current predictions, more than 60 liters of rainfall can be fallen at an hour. “The prediction of thunderstorms and heavy rainfall in particular the risk of Muries and local outputs,” warns Elmar Rizzoli, head of the Tyrolean Center for Crisis and Disaster Management.
In the mountains, on lakes and swimming pools, caution also applies to lightning strikes. “So pay attention to local weather developments and respond accordingly by looking for protection at an early stage,” advises the crisis manager. Increased caution also applies to traffic!
