Unexpected Storm Floods Home Patio, Causes Power Outage

BUDAPEST, Hungary – A recent severe storm has left residents grappling with unexpected damage, as one local homeowner documented the immediate aftermath at her residence. The video shows a patio submerged in several centimeters of water, with leaves and debris scattered across the paved outdoor area. The homeowner, who wished to remain anonymous, expressed her shock at the storm's intensity. "I haven't seen a storm like this in my life," she stated, noting that the wind and rain had "torn apart" her yard. She also mentioned that the power had gone out. Despite the significant flooding on her patio, she observed that "not a single tree broke," which she found surprising given the storm's force. Her dogs were seen inside the house, safe from the deluge. The homeowner anticipates a considerable cleanup effort in the coming days. Reports from other areas, including Lake Balaton, suggest similar severe weather conditions, indicating a broader impact across the region. Authorities have not yet released official statements regarding the full extent of the storm's damage or recovery efforts.
