There was heavy rain in the north of Italy overnight on September 28-29, with the picturesque Lake Como town of Blevio hit by flooding and landslides for the second time in three months.

This footage shows the town muddied from rainfall, and a stretch of road impassable due to debris.

“[Fifty] millimeters of rain fell on the shores of the lake, or a third of the rain that fell in the province throughout the month of August,” local news outlet La Provincia said.

Towns around Lake Como were struck by landslides and flooding in late July after stormy weather ravaged the scenic spot. Credit: Vigili del Fuoco via Storyful
