Flash floods of Török-stream near Szokolya

Abstract

The most serious destruction wreaked on buildings, roads etc. due to frequent and intensive downpours and quick floods happens typically in the northern area of the county, especially in the highland settlements. Water in these cases damages not only bulidings, roads and public utilities but also constructions which have been built as protection against water damage. It is often dubious how long lasting can the technical solution of their restoration be.
