The worst was in Sohodol. Authorities intervened with equipment all night to make room for the swirling water.

In Abrud, about 30 families in a part of the city were isolated, after a temporary bridge made of concrete pipes, arranged after the summer floods, was again destroyed by water.

Sergiu Simina, Deputy Mayor Abrud: ”Due to the wood that came on the riverbed and the big water coming out of the womb, a bridge was blocked here, it broke our way. I also intervened last night, as the water flow was high, I couldn’t solve it last night, because I wanted to solve it last night, so that no one would be stuck.”.

In Bistrița-Năsăud, too, people found themselves surrounded by water. This man moved his flock of team sheep in the middle of the night so that he could drown in the water to raise animals.

Vasile Moldovan: “It was like that in the spring, but not like now. Half the haystacks are in the water, the water has been everywhere“.

Firefighters were also called to the emergency room in Ioaniș, Bihor. A man employed at the water treatment plant was caught in a sudden surge of water and needed to be evacuated.

To reach it, firefighters had to cross arable land turned into a dangerous swamp.

And the snow has created problems. In Pasul Tihuța, some drivers had to turn right and wait for the snow removal equipment.

Rain and snow last until Tuesday

Road Workers: ”It snowed all the time. It’s raining, it’s freezing, we have to stop. This is the time, we have nothing to do, nature. It was a blizzard and he had to come with a bulldozer to find a band that I had never overcome.“.

”Driver: It’s snowing hard and it’s a little hard, you have to have tires, everything.
Reporter: And experience?
Driver: Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either.
Reporter: How fast are you driving?
Driver: With a maximum of 30 per hour”.

Driver: ”Is it dangerous that ditches have formed … that … slats? Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either“.

In Toplița, in Harghita, a driver woke up in the yard of a local after he skidded on the snow-covered road.

And we don’t get rid of the bad weather until Tuesday. In the mountains and in Moldova, the snow will leave a rich layer of snow, while in the other regions it will rain and frost will form.

During this time, in Constanța, the unusually warm weather encouraged people to go for a walk on the seafront or even to run.
