When is the flood of the year. All-Russian flood: the largest floods of the XXI century. Municipalities at risk

And the deceased.

Earlier, on May 25, due to the situation with floods in the territory of the region, an emergency regime (ES) was introduced. May 27 in one of the flooded houses in Mineralnye Vody the bodies of a man and a woman were found.

In Russia, 40-70 major floods occur annually. According to Roshydromet, about 500,000 square kilometers are affected by these natural disasters. km, floods with catastrophic consequences - 150 thousand sq km, where about 300 cities, tens of thousands of settlements, a large number of economic facilities, more than 7 million hectares of agricultural land are located.

The average annual damage from floods is estimated at about 40 billion rubles, including in the Volga river basins - 9.4 billion rubles, Amur - 6.7 billion rubles, Ob - 4.4 billion rubles, Terek - 3 billion rubles ., Don - 2.6 billion rubles, Kuban - 2.1 billion rubles, Lena - 1.2 billion rubles, Lake Baikal - 0.9 billion rubles, other rivers - 10.7 billion rubles.

Most often, floods occur in the south of Primorsky Krai, in the basin of the Middle and Upper Oka, the Upper Don, on the rivers of the Kuban and Terek basins, in the Tobol basin, on the tributaries of the Middle Yenisei and the Middle Lena. Powerful snow and rain floods occur on major Russian rivers almost every year.

According to a study by the All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Hydrometeorological Information - the World Data Center (FGBU "VNIIGMI-WDC"), the total number of dangerous hydrological phenomena (floods, floods and mudflows) for the first decade of the XXI century. in Russia increased by 1.5 times compared with the 1990s.

The TASS-DOSIER editors have prepared a chronology of the largest floods, floods and floods in Russia over the past five years, which led to great material damage and loss of life.

On July 6-7, 2012, heavy rains led to the most destructive flood in the history of the Krasnodar Territory. 10 settlements were affected, including the cities of Gelendzhik, Novorossiysk, Krymsk, the settlements of Divnomorskoye, Nizhnebakanskaya, Neberdzhaevskaya and Kabardinka. The main blow of the elements fell on the Crimean region and directly on Krymsk.

As a result of the flood, according to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, 171 people died. 53 thousand people were recognized as victims of the disaster, of which 29 thousand completely lost their property. 7.2 thousand residential buildings were flooded, of which more than 1.6 thousand households were completely destroyed. The elements disrupted the systems of energy, gas and water supply, road and rail traffic. The total damage from the disaster amounted to about 20 billion rubles. July 9, 2012 was declared a day of mourning throughout Russian Federation.

In July - October 2013, the largest flood in the last 115 years was recorded in the Amur River basin, caused by intense prolonged precipitation. The Amur Region, Khabarovsk Territory and the Jewish Autonomous Region were in the abnormal flood zone. Two cities were flooded in the Khabarovsk Territory (on September 4, the water level in the Amur reached a peak of 808 cm in Khabarovsk, and on September 12 - 910 cm in Komsomolsk-on-Amur) and three regional centers, 90 settlements and 8 thousand summer cottages and household plots plots, 3,500 residential buildings, 35 social facilities and 74 utility facilities.

About 47 thousand people ended up in flood zones. A total of 190,000 people were affected by the disaster. Rescue services, personnel of the Armed Forces and volunteers took part in the rescue operations. The only victim of the flood was junior sergeant Bair Banzaraktsaev, who died on September 5 while performing a task to strengthen the dam (posthumously awarded the medal "For Courage").

As a result of the natural disaster, 290 km of roads were destroyed and 20,000 hectares of agricultural land were damaged. The total damage from the flood, according to Deputy Prime Minister Yury Trutnev, made on April 25, 2014, exceeded 527 billion rubles, 40 billion rubles were allocated from the federal budget for restoration work.

On September 24, 2014, due to a storm in the Sea of ​​Azov, the water level at the mouth of the rivers sharply increased (the so-called “surge wave” was formed), as a result of which more than 3 thousand waterways were flooded in 31 settlements of the Yeisk and Primorsko-Akhtarsky districts of the Krasnodar Territory. residential buildings with a population of more than 7.5 thousand people. One person died (he was washed away into the sea), the forces of the fire and rescue units of the Ministry of Emergency Situations evacuated about 1.5 thousand people. The total amount of damage (the Rostov region also suffered) amounted to 1.1 billion rubles.

On June 25, 2015, a rain flood in Sochi caused an overflow of the banks of the Herota River, resulting in flooding of the Adler region and the village. Kudepsta, Khostinsky district of the city. A state of emergency was introduced, due to the flood, power supply was suspended for several hours in the Adler region.

Sochi International Airport, railway station, section railway Khosta - Adler, as well as 2 thousand 23 residential buildings and 98 municipal property. One person died from electric shock. The Sochi administration estimated the total damage from the flood at 760 million rubles. and established compensation for citizens whose housing was affected by flooding, in the amount of 10 to 100 thousand rubles. (depending on the damage suffered).

On August 27 - September 2, 2015, as a result of heavy rains caused by the passage of Typhoon Goni, up to two monthly rainfall fell in Primorye. Rivers burst their banks in the south of the region, including the Rakovka River in the Ussuriysk urban district, where almost 100 residential buildings and 600 adjacent territories were flooded.

55 people were evacuated from the flood zone. Water flooded the Green Island Zoo, from which about 20 animals did not manage to be taken out, on September 1-3, rescuers transported them to safe places. Also suffered a small zoo in the village. Borisovka - guinea pigs, a raccoon and several dozen exotic birds drowned there.

Near the village of Krounovka, a 70-meter bridge collapsed; instead, a temporary crossing was built from pipes, concrete slabs and an earthen embankment. In 2016 and 2017, it was repeatedly flooded due to rains, as a result of which the village found itself in transport isolation.

On August 31, 2016, Typhoon Lionrock passed through the territory of Primorsky Krai. As a result of the flood caused by the elements, 27 out of 34 municipal districts of the region were affected, 170 settlements, more than 15 thousand households, over 21 thousand land plots, thousands of hectares of agricultural land were flooded. 56 settlements were completely disconnected from the power supply, there was no connection with 51 settlements. 549 kilometers of roads and 189 culverts were destroyed, about 40 thousand people were recognized as victims.

On September 2, near the village of Uborka, a KamAZ vehicle with rescuers from the Far Eastern Regional Search and Rescue Team overturned into the river, resulting in the death of the head of the regional department of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, Oleg Fedyura. From September 2 to October 2, 2016, a state of emergency at the federal level was in effect in the region. Then it was replaced by the state of emergency at the regional level, which was removed throughout the region on December 27, 2016. By the end of 2016, about 52 thousand residents of the region received more than 1.3 billion rubles. compensation from the budgets of all levels.

Maximum levels of spring flood on the rivers of the European part of the country in 2017

As a result of the hydrometeorological conditions prevailing by the beginning of March, it can be expected that the flood of 2017 in the south, west and center of the European part of the country will be lower than usual. In the basins of the river In Kostroma, Unzha, Vyatka, Kama, Ural, rivers of the Trans-Volga region, flood maxima will be above the norm, in other river basins - mostly close to it.

With the friendly development of spring processes, as well as in the event of heavy rains and the formation of ice jams, the highest maximum water levels (by 0.5-1.0 m, in some places up to 1.5 m above the norm) are expected on the river. Kostroma, Unzha, Sukhona, Vaga, Vologda, Vyatka, the upper reaches of the Kama and its tributaries, Belaya, Ufa, the rivers of the Samara region and the Volga regions of the Saratov region, as well as in the Ural river basin.

Below the norm (by 1.0-1.5 m, in some places up to 2.5-4.9 m), the maximum flood levels will be on the Don, Oka, Upper Dnieper and most of their tributaries, as well as on the Pskovskaya, south of Leningrad and north Kaliningrad regions. On the other rivers of the European part of the country, flood maxima are expected to be mostly close to the norm.

Maximum spring flood levels on the rivers of the Asian part of the country in 2017

In the Asian part of the country, the highest flood maxima (by 0.5-1.5 m, in some places up to 2.7 m above the norm) are expected on the Ob to the mouth of the Tym River, Irtysh, Ishim, Tobol, Upper Kolyma and their tributaries, as well as on the rivers of Primorsky Krai, south Kamchatka Territory and south of the Sakhalin region.

Below the usual (by 0.5-1.0 m, in some places up to 1.6 m) there will be flood maxima on the Yenisei below the mouth of the Angara, Upper Lena, Podkamennaya Tunguska, Lower Tunguska, Nadym and Kazym. On the other rivers of the Asian part of the country, flood maxima are expected to be mostly close to the norm.

On March 14, a press conference was held at the Rossiyskaya Gazeta media center on the topic: "Spring flood 2017: the most problematic areas", in which Alexander Frolov, head of the Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring, took part; Yury Simonov, Head of the Laboratory of the Department of River Hydrological Forecasts of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia; Head of the Department of Water Resources and Regulation of Water Management Activities (Rosvodresurs) Dmitry Savostitsky.

"Beautiful weather in Moscow, in the south and west of Central Russia is by no means a reason to relax," said Alexander Frolov. regions, the Republic of Bashkortostan, the Volga region, where, for a number of reasons, enough high levels spring flood."

"The most important huge problem area- 5-7 constituent entities of the Russian Federation: in the Siberian Federal District, Altai Republic, Altai Territory, Novosibirsk, Kemerovo and Tomsk regions. There is evidence that we can expect extremely high floods there this year, - said the head of Roshydromet.

So, what does the spring flood depend on? Several factors, the combination of which will determine the development of the situation in a particular region.

The first is the stock of snow accumulated in winter. The winter was snowy, quite cold, without thaws - this is an anomaly, the snow reserves at the beginning of March / end of winter are above the norm in most of the Russian Federation.

The second factor is the depth of freezing and soil moisture. The soil is ready to absorb water or the water will roll in the form of melt runoff into the rivers.

The third is the thickness of the ice on the rivers, since we have so many rivers, especially in the north, in the Asian part of Russia, flow from south to north. Rivers open up in the south, causing ice jams, which creates very serious problems: the levels rise quickly, to high values.

The fourth factor influencing the flood is the weather situation. Rain, heat - now the weather is 20-25 days ahead of the normal schedule. We live in the middle of April - the central part, the south of Russia, the west of the European territory of Russia. This is a long-term anomaly that is one of the largest in the history of instrumental observations."

The traditionally dangerous area is the Sukhona River, where a large traffic jam is usually created. “The city of Veliky Ustyug is located there, this year, unlike last year, the situation will be much milder,” said Alexander Frolov. “Last year, the level rose to 9.5 meters due to traffic jams. There was a huge 60-kilometer ice plug This year the ice is strong, crystalline, but since events will still develop rather slowly, we expect that there will obviously be a traffic jam, but without such high level rises. this is already the Arkhangelsk region, in the central and middle reaches of the Northern Dvina and definitely near Arkhangelsk. Relevant work will be carried out both on blackening the ice and cutting ice, icebreakers will be used to crush ice. Nevertheless, this is an area of ​​increased danger. "

Yury Simonov, Head of the Laboratory of the Department of River Hydrological Forecasts of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia, updated the forecast for the Moscow Region. “On the territory of the Moscow Region, the maximum snow content turned out to be close to the norm, somewhere slightly exceeded the norm, somewhere 90% of the norm was. Therefore, in general, if we talk about snow, these are approximately normal values ​​on average relative to long-term averages. But here there is a second strong factor that characterizes the loss of meltwater, this is the freezing of the soil.This year, the soil froze very slightly, only 3-13 cm in different areas of the Moscow region.Accordingly, under such conditions, the soil is ready to absorb meltwater when it melts and retain water and then release it into the river network. Of course, this affects the fact that the maximum levels will be somewhat below the norm, "Yuri Simonov explained.

Dmitry Savostitsky, Head of the Department of Water Resources and Regulation of Water Management Activities (Rosvodresurs), spoke about reservoirs, the main regulators of flows that can mitigate and to some extent make it possible to meet the needs of the population and objects in water resources in the basins of the main major rivers. "We have 343 largest reservoir, the capacity of which exceeds 10 million cubic meters. Their management is carried out strictly according to the rules. For everyone, a rule is being developed for the use of the reservoir, which includes, among other things, our current cases of development and preparation for floods, Dmitry Savostitsky shared. - 70 million people live in the Volga river basin. At present, our reservoirs are already prepared to receive the flood waters that are expected."

Due to the fact that there is a prolonged low water at Baikal, specialists work and manage the lake in the minimum allowable drawdown modes in order to provide vital system supplies for the population that lives in the Irkutsk hydroelectric complex. "We maintain this regime for a long time: and in winter period, and in summer. And thanks to this, right now we are balancing on the verge of the minimum allowable level of Lake Baikal, - said Dmitry Savostitsky. - In general, we have no concerns about the main large cascades of reservoirs. Everything is under control. For each of these reservoirs, a special group at the territorial level. If we talk about the Bolshekamsky cascade, then this is the level of federal government. We are already making decisions directly in Moscow on filling and depleting these reservoirs. As for other reservoirs, these decisions are made at the territorial level, with the participation of the subjects of the federation and all services and commissions for the prevention of emergencies at the regional level. They also participate in the control mode of these cascades."

Information about the expected nature of the spring flood in 2017 on the rivers of the Russian Federation

The winter of 2016-2017 in most regions of the European part of Russia was close to normal - without prolonged thaws and mostly snowy.

By the beginning of March 2017, in general, in the basin of the river. Volga, the water reserve in the snow cover was 136 mm (123% of the norm). In most private basins, the water reserves in the snow cover exceeded the usual values ​​by 15–35%, and only in the basins of the Moscow and Kama rivers, as well as the Volgograd reservoir, were they close to the norm. Almost throughout the river basin. Volga snow reserves were higher than last year by 17-49 mm, and in the basins of the river. Kama, Saratov and Volgograd reservoirs are close to them.

In the river basin Don above the Tsimlyansk reservoir, the water reserves in the snow amounted to 145% of the norm and were 56 mm higher than last year. In the basins of its eastern tributaries - pp. Khopra and Medveditsa - snow reserves amounted to 135 and 80% of the norm, respectively.

In the basins of the river Northern Dvina, Sukhona, Vaga, South, Pinega, Vychegda and Mezen, the water reserve in the snow cover was 132-141% of the norm. In almost all river basins in the north of the European part of the country, snow reserves turned out to be 7-53 mm higher than last year, and only in the river basin. Vychegdy - 28 mm less.

In the northwest, snow reserves in the basins of the river. Narva and Volkhov were 31% and 113% of the norm, respectively.

In the basins of rivers and reservoirs of Siberia, the water reserves in the snow at the end of February mainly amounted to 85-161% of the norm. Largest reserves water in the snow (150-160% of the norm) were observed on the Upper Ob and in the basin of the river. Tobol. In the basin of the Upper Yenisei, snow reserves exceeded the usual values ​​by 30-45%, and in the basin of the river. Angara and Lake Baikal, they were close to normal.

In the river basin Lena, the water reserves in the snow were almost everywhere close to the average values. Above the usual (1.3-2.0 times) were the reserves of water in the snow in the basin of the river. Kolyma.

In the river basin Amur, accumulated by the beginning of March, the water reserves in the snow were mostly less than the norm or close to it, only in the basin of the river. Ussuri in some places exceeded it by 20-30%.

Pre-winter soil moistening was heterogeneous: in the river basins of the north-west of the European part of Russia and in the Trans-Volga region, it was 15–60% higher than the norm; Don and Khoper - 25-30% less than the norm.

In most of the country, the soil was slightly frozen. In the river basins of the northwest, on the Upper Oka, the soil has frozen to 5-40 cm; in the basins of the Don, Khopra and Medveditsa - by 20-50 cm, and only in the Trans-Volga region and in the Southern Urals, the depth of soil freezing was 40-100 cm.

In connection with the positive temperature anomaly in the second half of February, the development of spring floods began on the rivers of the Kaliningrad region and in the basin of the river. Don. By the beginning of March, the river was opened from the ice. Neman and its tributaries, an intensive rise in the water level began. In March, the rise in water level on the river. The Neman and its tributaries will continue due to precipitation and surge phenomena with strong western and southwestern winds. The maximum levels of spring floods on the Pregolya and Deyma rivers are expected to be close to the norm or slightly above it, and on the river. Neman and Matrosovka are below the norm.

By the beginning of March, the lower course of the river was opened from ice. Don, passed the maximum levels of spring flood (below the average annual values ​​by 0.1-0.8 m) on small rivers of the Rostov region. Melting and destruction of the ice cover was observed on the rivers of the Middle Don basin, which was accompanied in some places by the formation of thin ice jams.

In the first decade of March, due to warm weather, the destruction of the ice cover and the development of spring processes began on the rivers of the north-west of the European part of the country, on the Western Dvina, the Dnieper, in the upper reaches of the Volga, as well as in the basin of the Upper and Middle Oka.

In April-May-June, the seasonal rise in water will not interrupt the exciting fishing in Karalat, but will make it even more exciting!

The second half of April and May for the Volga delta in the Karalat region is the time of the traditional rise of water associated with the beginning of the discharge and passage of flood waters from the reservoirs of the Volga-Kama to Lower Volga cascade of Zhigulevskaya, Balakovskaya and Volzhskaya HPPs.

Water at this time in our places rapidly arrives, rushes to the ravine-poloi, which literally in a matter of hours and the bottom warms up well. The most diverse fish come out there in huge shoals - roach, bream, carp, white bream, rudd, blue bream, the famous delta "buffalo carp".

Holiday for months

By the way, this year the rise of water in the Lower Volga and the delta is promised by ecologists and water specialists, if not a record one in recent years, then at least a very solid one. Water reserves in the Volga and Kama basin this year, according to preliminary forecasts, have been accumulated in different areas in the amount of 108-130% of the average norm. big water may come to the lower reaches of the Volga in the Karalat area as early as the end of April, and, as in the past year, linger almost until the beginning of July.

High water - the time for fishing in the lower reaches of the great river is not easy, but exciting. The main difficulty is that due to the rapid rise in water, the picture with the bite is rapidly changing, the choice of a good point for fishing literally during the day. Sometimes it happens that even yesterday a prey place, with a sharp rise in water, literally the next day “falls silent”, or even turns out to be flooded.

Meanwhile, it is in April and May that pre-spawning and post-spawning zhor occurs in many fish of the Volga delta.

Do not forget only that according to the new edition of the fishing rules from May 16 to June 20 inclusive Astrakhan region valid spawning ban, which imposes a number of restrictions on fishing. During the time of the ban it is impossible to fish outside the administrative boundaries of settlements.

With the beginning of water growth in April in the channel channel in the Karalat area, you can use an ordinary fishing rod with a float, a feeder, a donk without special work"To stretch" almost the threshold of the base of selected roach, bream, crucian carp, if you're lucky carp, and other fish. The peak of the flood occurs by mid-May, after which the water level in the river remains at its maximum value for about 2-3 weeks. Only then does the water begin to flow away.

Seeking and finding

With a predator at high water it is not much more difficult than with cyprinids. The very beginning of the flood stimulates the migration of some predators to atypical habitats for them - pike perch, asp, catfish, for example. However, at the peak of the flood, successful fishing even for a schooling predator becomes unpredictable. In the middle of the flood, a lot of predators, including even pike perch and catfish, completely follow the medium-sized carp "linen" to shallow water-floods in flood meadows, to shallow ilmens. But at the end of the flood, the pike perch again massively returns to the bed of the channel, moreover, it becomes not particularly picky about baits and baits.

In general, fishing in May on the Lower Volga is an extremely successful period for catching white fish, as well as pre-launch readiness for catching the main objects of summer trophy fishing - carp catfish. Asp fishing can also successfully “shoot” - both in the channel part of the channel, and in exits to lateral small watercourses and hollows. Best nozzle on this predator at the right time big water- a variety of wobblers and spinners. But for such a predator as pike, perch, it is better at this time to go down closer to the fore-delta and peals - places where almost the entire flood can remain areas with clear water.

In addition to the floodplains, starting from the end of May, it is possible again to successfully catch “white fish” in the channel part of the rivers. And not only at dawn, as in summer or early autumn, but almost the entire daylight hours. Moreover, from one point you can successfully “fish” with almost the entire range of carp fish in our area. After all, in the flood different types actively migrate along the channel, including in the coastal part. Memorable catches for fishermen in Karalat in such a situation are simply inevitable!
