Europe is sinking! Germany and Italy are closing! Frankfurt has canceled all flights!

Heavy rains plunged Germany’s Frankfurt airport into chaos on Wednesday night, leading to the cancelation of about 100 flights and numerous delays. The rain flooded the runway, leaving hundreds of passengers stranded on planes for hours. Videos posted on social media showed that most of the runway was covered in water. Ground services at the airport had to be stopped altogether for more than two hours. More than 20 flights bound for Frankfurt were diverted to other airports. In a devastating turn of events, Italy finds itself under the grip of nature’s fury as torrential rains trigger widespread flooding and a relentless hailstorm strikes various regions. With rivers bursting their banks and low-lying areas submerged, rescue operations are underway to aid stranded communities.
