Global warming brings extreme weather events & causing more huricanes in many areas of the world.
In 2004 strong storm and huricane hit southern part of Tatra Mountains* turning beautiful land into a land of ecological disaster. I have always believe that hurricanes only affect coastal regions.
Now, It will surely take long years to rebuilt forests.
* The Hight Tatras are the smallest alpine region in the world. It's shared by Poland and Slovakia.
Welcome comments and another destroy land images.

The backstory, that a storm destroyed the trees, makes your shots very telling.

Do you live in that area? Where houses/villages destroyed as well? or was it mainly the Mountain/forest area?
Hurricanes grow over warm water. This storm had hurricane-like speeds, but was technically not a hurricane.

ivar, 130 000 acres of forest have been leveled and few houses. Still sad.
Thanx.
