Here in Serbia it's also flooded like hell, 2 cities are completely evacuated, there is no exact number of dead but they are reporting that they are just pulling dead bodies from water. It's like hell here, but finally rain stopped and hopefully it won't start again.

Absolutely mate.. I live in Austria at the moment, we've been up all day today working to help the poor people back home.

This country has been through so much, but in these kinds of moments you can see the true heart of people. Nationality and religion has nothing to do with simply being human. I'm proud of my people, well not all but a lot of them.

I've never seen anything like this ever before, water is virtually everywhere, some villages have been wipped off the face of the earth, over 20 people are dead and many more missing, a few places have been completely destroyed... Awful scenes really.

Hard to comprehend the scale of it, and youre a star for helping out. Like you say disasters like that transcend religious/political divides. Just seen it on the news here, they mentioned Serbia and Italy as well. I hope the authorities learn from this, and do what they can for the next time. Far too often they ignore prevemtative issues after events such as these

Stay safe mate.

Big thank you to everyone for caring, we appreciate it so much. Proper Chels!

Well, I live like less than 100m from the river Danube, and if it rises... you probably get the idea. And river that is causing all this trouble, Sava, flows into Danube. I just hope it doesn't come to that.

My parents live right by the Danube so I worried a lot too.. Our region is a little fucked up now..

[pWneR 230]

It shouldn't go that far, atleast I hope. And to make it even worse, I live near where Sava flows into Danube.

[Fulham Broadway 16,392]

They just said that region has had 3 months rainfall in 3 days! Hope you and your friends and relatives stay safe.

Surprised about how little is being said about this in the new here.

It's really scary thinking about all those signs of climate change because it's all our faults. This was in California a week or so ago:

I can feel the changes

I can feel a new life

Got back into herbs again, finally. Hadn't felt this peaceful in a loooong ass time.

[pWneR 230]

Usually I wouldn't give a rats ass, but at this situation, this really hurts.

33 Unbelievable Places To Visit Before You Die

Turquoise Ice, Lake Baikal, Russia

Lake Baikal is the largest and oldest freshwater lake in the world. In the winter, the lake freezes, but the water is so clear that you can see 130 feet below the ice. In March, frost and sun cause cracks in the ice crust, which results in the turquoise ice shards we see at the surface.


Sentinels of Arctic, Finland



These sentinels are actually giant trees covered in snow and ice. This strange sight occurs in winter, when temperatures range from -40 to -15 degrees centigrade.


Highlands, Iceland







The isolated highlands of Iceland have some of the most superb natural sights in the Northern Hemisphere. The mind-blowing glaciers, craters, lakes and geysers are breathtaking by day, but when night falls, the area becomes one of the best places to witness the aurora borealis.


Sea of Stars, Vaadhoo Island, Maldives




Socorta Island,Yemen





One third of the plant life on Socotra Island, Yemen is found nowhere else on planet Earth. One of the most bizarre forms of life is the dragon blood tree, which resembles an umbrella.


Glowworm Caves, Waitomo, New Zealand



Thousands of tiny glowworms hang to the ceiling of this grotto and radiate a luminescent light, creating a scene straight out of a sci-fi movie.


Yuanyang Country, Chiana



The farming techniques in Yuanyang County have created a landscape which is truly amazing from the air. These rice fields are located on the slopes of Ailao Mountain, where the terraced levels help create flat surfaces along an uneven landscape.


Underwater River, Cenote Angelita, Mexico



Underneath the water of Cenote Angelita is another flowing body of water. The river is full of hydrogen sulfate, which is much heavier than normal salt water. When it sinks to the bottom, it forms a flow of its own.


Lake Natron, Tanzania



This lake has a uniquely high salt content. Salt-loving microorganisms thrive and produce red pigment, colorizing the water. For other animals, the salt is deadly and many calcify (effectively turning into stone) after taking a dip in the water.


The Raja Ampat Islands of Papua




Plitvice park, Croatia



Plitvice National Park is the largest of its kind in Croatia and the oldest in Southeast Europe. Over thousands of years, water flowing over limestone and chalk created natural dams and eventually, beautiful lakes, caves and waterfalls.


Caño Cristales River, Colombia





Due to its extensive habitat of fauna and flora, this flowing river appears in yellow, green, blue, black and red as you travel along it. The rocks here are around 1.2 billion years old, and those who visit call it the most beautiful river in the world.
