One Of The Cities Hosting The 2018 World Cup Flooded After A Heavy Rain. PHOTOS by ashacot: 10:57am On Jun 20, 2018 |
Fans in Nizhny Novgorod in western Russia have been basking in sunshine on the banks of the Volga river since the World Cup began. But the lovely weather was put on ice today when the heavens opened and a thunderstorm flooded the medieval city. It only took half an hour for the heavy rain to quickly build up rivers of water, bringing traffic to a standstill and stranding motorists. But one man, dressed in a smart shirt and tie, leapt into action to rescue two women from their cars. Pictures show him wading in the waist-high water, dragging them out of their car windows one by one, and carrying them to safety. Due to the presence of a less-than-perfect drainage system, the water quickly rose to dangerous levels. While the flooding briefly dampened spirits at a hilltop fan zone, the sun soon came out again, calm returned, and locals simply shook their heads. ‘It’s not the first time – we’re used to it,’ said one shopkeeper, watching motorists open their bonnets to let their engines dry out.
