Just found out it has something to do with a deep low pressure(directly tranculated from faroese) don't know how to say it on english, but this caused it, I don't think it has happened ever before

Ahoy minime,
I really hope that what I saw on the pic's is the worst what happened.
I'm Dutch and old enough to remember february 1953.
Good luck to You and all of your fellow citizens.

Aad

well, no damage was done, but I guess that it shows that, they need to change the place so it would be higher.
