#makhachkala #flood #rain Heavy rains have flooded Makhachkala. Residents in Makhachkala are reporting blackouts in half the city due to flooding: power, internet, and communications are down. Power is out in entire neighborhoods. Cars are stalling on the streets from water hammer, getting stuck in water, and some are being carried away by the current. Heavy rains in Dagestan have led to street flooding in Makhachkala, Kaspiysk, and Izberbash, significantly impeding traffic. Heavy rainfall is creating problems on roads where storm drainage systems cannot cope with the floodwaters. This was reported on September 19 by the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for Dagestan. As a result of heavy rainfall in Makhachkala on the night of September 20, streets were flooded. Adverse weather conditions have significantly complicated traffic conditions: traffic is snarled by water accumulating on the roadway, and storm drains are unable to cope with the volume. Local residents are reporting power outages. Social media reports have surfaced of homes flooding through windows. Owners of affected homes are forced to manually scoop out the water with buckets. Makhachkala residents have been urged not to drink tap water. Bottled or boiled water is recommended for household use. City authorities suspect a breach in the water supply network in the area. There is a risk that contaminants have entered the system. Residents have been asked to remain calm and not panic. Emergency services have been put on high alert. The mayor's office is monitoring the work of utility workers to ensure the comfort and safety of the city's residents. Emergency crews are being dispatched to the most problematic areas. "The main problems arise on roads where deep puddles are forming. Vehicle movement is becoming difficult, and they often get stuck, unable to get out on their own," the department noted. According to meteorologists, Makhachkala found itself at the epicenter of the storm. Residents of the Crimean Peninsula and the Krasnodar Krai, which were the first to be hit by the elements, found themselves in a similar situation. Regional authorities believe that work in the area will continue in emergency mode until the end of the weekend. Afterward, they will address the problems that have been building up for decades, leaving the capital of Dagestan unprepared for such challenges. ................................................................................................................
