By Matthew Cappucci March 27 at 3:32 PM The northern Great Plains isn’t the only place dealing with unprecedented flooding at the moment. A series of deadly drenchings is continuing in Iran, just days after the country’s celebration of Nowruz — the Iranian new year.
The setup for heavy downpours this week in Iran. Part of what made the city so vulnerable to flooding amid seemingly less-than-impressive rain amounts is its location in the Zagros foothills. That makes it susceptible to channeling effects in rivers and valleys, reminiscent of the scenes that unfolded in Ellicott City, Md., in May.
The rains behind Shiraz’s flooding weren’t relegated to Iran’s south. Flood concerns first arose last week as moisture-loaded storms targeted northern regions on the shores of the Caspian Sea.
