About bad weather in Crimea

A cyclone with hurricane winds of up to 40 m/s at night and in the morning of November 27 led to massive flooding on the Black Sea coast of Russia. The disaster also affected the Republic of Crimea, where, according to Aksenov, it left almost 1.2 million residents without power supply. In the first hours, 445 people were evacuated from flooded residential buildings; in total, more than 200 houses were flooded. Reconstruction efforts were hampered by stormy weather throughout the week.
