Fire departments in Bavaria were kept busy overnight as storms and heavy rains prompted flash floods with drains and the dry earth unable to cope with the sudden precipitation.
Basements flooded, trees were blown over on public roads, and police reported several road traffic accidents related to aquaplaning (when there's so much water under a vehicle's tires that it severs the car's contact with the road and causes the driver to lose all or almost all control).
