Didn't the weather channels see this storm coming. Even Texans watch the winter forecasts now.

 Quoting: Wayne Gabler


Yes they did. It's 2021. And the pros put the warnings out.

Problem was the communication didn't get out to the public via various means.

"There were alerts going out... saying there's some very serious rain and floods coming: be aware. It's then for the national authorities to take that information and go with it," she said.

Prof Cloke said there were places where the system had "done what it's designed to do", with early warnings heeded.

But there were "also places where those warnings did not get through to the people and they did not know it was going to happen".

Flood water was “like a tsunami” survivors recall.
Ella Glover speaking to The Associated Press, survivors of the floods in Belgium said the water was “like a tsunami” and “came all of a sudden” late in the evening.

Paul and Madeline Brasseur were forced to seek safety upstairs with their two sons, eventually ending up on the roof of their building with 15 others.

“We started to see buildings collapsing, people on the rooftops, buildings collapsing, falling into the water,” Mr Brasseur said.

The family was eventually saved by “the father of my sons’ best friend,” after a holding back from sending their sons into a rescue boat sent to rescue the children had begun taking on water.

I assume if it has been a blizzard, it might have been even worse due to the time to cleanup involved.

It is reported to have been mostly, massive flooding in most of Europe which has taken lives, some still unaccounted for too...

Pretty shocking for them all affected there... I believe it will take some time for cleanup...
