Some days ago , a storm called Alex reached my part of the country, here in South of France.
During two days , we received rain and winds from the sky.
On the shore ,even if impressive, things had nothing unusual at this time of the year.
But in the mountains behind, it was hell..
Villages has been destroyed, people died or disappeared , houses, bridges , roads , cemeteries, were taken away by the rivers .Water and mud covered everything, destroyed everything.There are no more communications available, be it by road, phone , internet. No more electricity, no more drinkable water, no more heat, no more food..
I've heard that even during the Second World War there had been less destructions than during those two days.
Since last monday, people from the shore are trying to help, assist , rescue, offering any kind of assistance to those who lost everything. From the airport, helicopters fly towards the mountains with water , food and clothes, and come back with people who need care.
If I tell you that, it's only to make you understand that I'm not currently in the right mood for blogging.
We're trying to do what we can to give some help. It's stressful, and tiring . And it comes with the C.virus, which is still there around…
I'll come back to blogs when I'll be able to do it.
Take a good care of you, enjoy every moment with the ones you love. Things can change very quickly.
With all my friendship,
Malyss

This is the first I have heard of your terrible storm. Please stay safe, and do what ever you can to help others. The pictures you posted look like total devastation.
Terrible!
I watched the aftermath of this storm on tv and was glad to see that your area relatively okay. I was horrified to see the destruction in the hills and mountains. These photos show even worse things than I saw on tv.
I've been praying for you and for your region. Take care and hopefully things will get better soon!
