Russia NOW! Chaos in Moscow. Storm Edgar Brings Record Rains and Destructive Winds

A powerful storm "Edgar" hit Moscow, causing torrential rains and destructive winds with speeds up to 56 mph. Within minutes, the capital was plunged into chaos. The downpour resembled a tropical rain rather than typical precipitation for the region. In 20 days of June, over 7.3 inches of rain fell in the Moscow area, setting a new record for the past 82 years. Meteorologists have already declared June 2024 the rainiest in recorded history.

However, the most damage was caused by hurricane-force winds, which swept away everything in their path: metal sheets flew from construction sites, roof cladding was torn off, and cars were overturned. People clung to lampposts and crawled on all fours to avoid being blown away. Tornadoes formed for the second time this month, spotted by residents of a high-rise building in New Moscow. Funnels were also recorded in the Moscow region — in Istra, Losino-Petrovsky, and Lobnya, an absolutely unusual phenomenon for the area.

In Sviblovo, pieces of metal roofing fell on a tram, debris struck the contact network and the car, breaking windows and injuring two passengers. In just 15 minutes, the storm uprooted over 700 trees in the capital. In total, 1,185 trees were felled in Moscow, and 660 in the Moscow region, with gusts of wind uprooting them. In the Aeroport area, a man was injured inside his car due to a fallen tree. In Losinoostrovsky, fallen trunks trapped three people inside a car. The storm damaged 767 vehicles. In the "Moscow City" area, the aerodynamic effect intensified the wind to such speeds that people could not stand.

The city recorded two fatalities: one man was crushed by a tree near Dubki Park, and another was hit by falling scaffolding. 37 people were injured.

Bent garages, mangled fences, damaged cars, and broken windows were common sights in many courtyards of Moscow.

Storm "Edgar" also brought extreme rains to other regions of the country. In Smolensk, more than a month's worth of rainfall fell in two days, setting new records.

Currently, the planet is experiencing rare events that occur once every 12,000 years due to cosmic influences. However, in this cycle, human interference with the ecosystem threatens a global catastrophe. To prevent this, it is essential to spread information and understand what is happening. Answers to key questions about threats and ways to prevent them are presented at the "Global Crisis" forums available on our channel. It is important for people to unite and act together to solve this problem.
