20 February 4 years on.....

Those who were on the Island 4 years ago today will never forget the terrible floods that devastated parts of Madeira.
51 lives were lost in this tragedy on 20th February 2010. 
The Diario newspaper devotes 13 pages to this day 4 years ago, where 79 families are still waiting for housing, and only half the promised money was received.

Serra de Agua

Serra de Agua in full flood on 20th February. One of the worst areas affected that day.

The city of Funchal During 20th Feb 2010

It's hard to believe how badly the city of Funchal was destroyed on this day.
