English: On 10 February 2021 heavy rain hit Southern Italy, in particular the Campania region, which suffered numerous landslides and floods as a result of the rainfall. Disruptions in local road networks isolated some towns in the inner provinces of Avellino and Benevento, and an entire part of the Amalfi Coast was isolated due to landslides in Vietri sul Mare and Ravello. In the Province of Salerno, the severe weather caused a water main to break, leaving thousands of citizens without drinking water. On 11 February 2021, the Italian Civil Protection Department issued a new warning for possible landslides in the region. This image, acquired by one of the two Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 11 February 2021, shows the floods caused by the rivers Calore and Volturno in northern Campania. Along the coastal area, massive sediment plumes generated by the discharge of the rivers Volturno and Garignano can also be seen. The Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission allows for flood mapping and damage assessment thanks to its maximum spatial resolution of ten metres and a maximum revisit time of five days.
