The state fire brigade command counted 180 fire brigade missions in the evening and on the night as a result of heavy rain. The Vöcklabruck district and later Urfahr-Umgeben were particularly affected, where the torrential rain went particularly in Gallneukirchen and Engerwitzdorf. “I can’t remember that it has rained so violently with us,” said Christoph Meisinger from the Schweinbach fire brigade in the Nachrichten.at conversation. More than 900 firefighters stood in storms all over Upper Austria.
