In that case Europe got the other plague: Water.
We have so much rain here - it's just all wet. Farmers have problems entering their fields because the trucks/tractors get stuck. Some open air events have been canceled.
The creek between our estate and the field is full since weeks trying to get the water out of there.
Friends living on the other side of the city have had the basement flooded at least 4 times. The water comes through the basements window, the ground is not able to hold the water any more.
We are luckily living on the other side of the city, where the water is not running towards to.
