Fierce thunderstorms swept across Europe on Friday, killing eight people and leaving a trail of flooded roads, collapsed houses and downed bridges from France to Poland. Regional officials in northeastern Italy declared a state of emergency, while the Austrian military was deployed to deal with the flooding aftermath. In Germany, at least three people died in storm-battered Bavaria. An 81-year-old woman died when flood waters poured into her Dierdorf cellar, while two men drowned in a parking garage. In southeastern France, floods and mudslides collapsed two houses and carried cars away. About 100 residents of Saint-Geoire-en-Valdaine in the mountainous Isere region were forced to spend Thursday night in a gymnasium. A woman in her 80s was found dead in the rubble of a home partly destroyed by storms, police said.
