Until October 5, in Sochi, where it is still raining heavily, and rivers literally flow through the streets, the storm warning will last due to bad weather.

From 6 pm on October 4 to 6 pm on October 5, according to the forecasts of the Specialized Center for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring of the Black and Azov Seas, a complex of adverse weather events, including heavy rain and thunderstorms, will be observed in the resort.

In addition, the rise of water in rivers, deaths on the Magri - Veseloye section, and gusts of wind are expected up to 17 meters per second.

In August, Sochi residents were warned about the danger of tornadoes over the sea - also in the Magri-Veseloye section. A month earlier, 335 residents of Sochi were recognized as victims of a large-scale flood. Beginning from July 4, a two-month precipitation rate fell in two days. The rivers overflowed their banks. An emergency regime was introduced in six districts. Landslides have descended on federal highways M-4 "Don" and "Dzhubga - Sochi". The flood killed several people, including children. A criminal case was initiated on this fact.
