Floods in Norway have left
Floods in Norway have left a mass of mangled infrastructure in their wake after several days of heavy rains.
Scandinavia has been battered by storm Hans, whose deluge submerged a hydroelectric power plant and led to a partial collapse of the dam at Braskereidfoss in eastern Norway.
Floodwaters in Norway have sent mobile homes crashing into a bridge on the Hemsilar river.
The breach in part of the dam on Wednesday afternoon has since allowed water to flow downstream and the reservoir is now draining.
Flood gates at the facility failed to open automatically after a grid failure caused generators to drop offline early Wednesday. That saw floodwaters spill over the top of the dam into the station, causing major damage, the company said in a statement.
Norway has borne the brunt of the storm, with thousands evacuated from the worst hit areas as heavy rain triggered landslides and closed off more than 100 roads. The southeastern part of the country has been the most affected.
