Mikä tulva tapahtui Suomessa 2007?
The floods in Finland at the beginning of October 2012 were caused by several days of rain. Rivers flooded especially in South Ostrobothnia and Pohjois Satakunta. According to meteorologist Matti Huutonen, during the day (October 5-6) it rained in some places as much as normally in a month. Even outside the flood area, for example in Kokemäki and Pori, daily rainfall amounts of more than 30 millimeters were measured. Main road 67 had to be closed in Ilmajoki after water flooded the road. Roads were also closed elsewhere in South Ostrobothnia. The water also rose on the roads in Kankaanpää. Several houses in Ilmajoki, Kauhajoki and Lapvärtti were blocked and water entered the basements. In Kauhajoki, residents had to be moved to temporary accommodation. On October 8, MTV3 reported that the flood situation was already easing, but added that it would take at least another week before we reach the time
