Thunderstorms and heavy rain flooded the Basel region and Vaud on Tuesday evening. Hundreds of reports were received by the police in Liestal BL and Morges VD on Tuesday evening. There were initially no reports of injuries.

Several hundred reports of flooded cellars, power outages and other damage were received by the Basel-Landschaft cantonal police in Liestal alone, a spokeswoman told the Keystone-SDA news agency. In addition to the cantonal capital, Frenkendorf and Füllinsdorf were also affected. This was first reported by the online portal 20minuten.ch.

In Morges in the canton of Vaud, the river of the same name overflowed its banks in several places in the urban area. Terraces were flooded and water entered stores and restaurants.
