【アルゼンチン:大洪水。】

 なにやら四か月分の降雨が数時間のうちに降り、そこらの通りが川に変わるという大洪水発生。

One of Argentina's biggest cities has been hit by severe flooding after suffering the equivalent of more than four months' rainfall in just four hours.

 病院は浸水して新生児を避難させる必要が。また空港は閉鎖。電気だってもちろん止まる。

Heavy rain began lashing Bahía Blanca in Buenos Aires province at about 04:00 local time (07:00 GMT) on Friday, turning streets into rivers and leaving large parts of the city without electricity.

At a local hospital, new-born babies had to be evacuated after flood waters invaded the building. Elsewhere, more than 40 families have had to leave their homes and the airport has been closed.


 既に250mm降った、さらに50~100mm降りそうだ―と。一時間あたり50mm程度の「激しい雨」が5時間以上、さらに継続の見込みといったところか。

The authorities said up to 250mm (10in) of rain had already fallen, with another 50-100mm expected before the storm abates.

 年間600-650mmの土地でそれでは、そりゃあ対応能力を超える。日本でも無理だろうなあ…。

The city normally receives about 600-650mm of rain a year.

【カナダ:シリアルキラー事件の捜査】

 なにやらindigenous womanが特に狙われて殺された事件があり、遺体捜索が進んでいる様子。

BBC Canadian serial killer's victim found in landfill 1 hour ago

The remains of an indigenous woman murdered by a serial killer have been found after a search of a landfill in the Canadian province of Manitoba, police say.

Morgan Harris' remains were recovered at the Prairie Green Landfill, north of the city of Winnipeg, said officials. Authorities had been searching for Harris, 39, and Marcedes Myran, 26, both of Long Plain First Nation. Police say two sets of remains have been found.

Harris and Myran were among four indigenous women killed in 2022 by convicted murderer Jeremy Skibicki, who dumped their bodies in two different landfills over a three-month span.


 先住民女性はカナダの女性人口の4%を占めるが、行方不明の女性の10%、殺害された女性の16%を占めるのだとかで、なんでそういうことになるものかねえ…これこそ差別問題の取り組み対象なのだと思う。

Canada has long faced a crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls. According to the RCMP, indigenous women make up 10% of the population of missing women in Canada and 16% of female homicides. Indigenous women make up about 4% of the female population in Canada.
