Natural Disasters
A
Wildfire near Los Angeles
Firefighters in California report that three people have died in a wildfire near Los
Angeles. The fire started on Sunday, and the casualties were found early this morning.
The wildfire has been classified as a type 1 wildfire, and so far it has already destroyed
a large area of parkland and some property. A park ranger said that there are strong
winds in the area of the fire, which are making it difficult to get the fire under control.
Official warnings from environmental organisations state the concern that these
powerful winds will make the fire spin, which could then turn into a fire tornado. As a
result, people in several towns have already left the area and many more will leave
today.
B
Flooding in England
Many parts of England are flooded and under water today, following two days of
violent thunderstorms and hailstorms. People in the north woke up to see that there is
water everywhere, with flash floods covering the city of York and several smaller
towns. According to some residents, this is the second time this year that their homes
have flooded, but these flash floods were unexpected. One local explains, “The weather
is just bizarre at the moment. I’m sure storms and flooding are happening more
frequently here – it’s all because of global warning. I believe in it, and what’s more, we
are going to suffer more and more natural disasters.” Experts say that the
unpredictable weather will continue for this week and that many more towns will
suffer flash flooding. People should prepare themselves and their homes.
C
Avalanche in the Alps
Yesterday afternoon, rescuers found a group of skiers who were missing after an
avalanche occurred in the French Alps on Tuesday. The skiers were enjoying
themselves when it suddenly started snowing. They were found in an area of forest
near the ski resort, where they were trying to escape from the severe blizzard. There
was still heavy snow on Tuesday night, which made it more difficult for the rescuers to
locate the group. One witness at the rescue said, “It is a miracle! The experts were very
daring and worked tirelessly to find the group.” French police say that all the skiers are
now safe and have been taken to hospital to be examined. Experts say you should not
g o skiing when the temperature suddenly rises because this increases the possibility of
avalanches.
D
Volcano interest in Sicily
Vulcanologists – or people who study volcanoes – from all over the world will arrive in
Sicily today to study the volcanic eruption of Mount Etna. Mount Etna is the second
biggest volcano in Europe and is of great interest at the moment. The volcano is
unusually active and many experts are coming to see what is happening for themselves.
They will spend as much time as necessary here, and they will research the volcano
and the destruction in more detail. The volcano is playing havoc in the area and
affecting many locals in various ways. Lava and ash have destroyed several houses at
the base of the volcano, and smoke is visible for miles. The airport at Catania is closed
for safety reasons.
