大家已然将火车站当成了游泳池，还带来了充气沙发、水枪等尽情享受这个免费的水上乐园。莎拉称虽然水很脏，但大家都玩得很开心。有人欢喜有人愁，乘客们就没有这么开心了，车站积水导致不少班次延误，他们不得不抱着行李箱趟过及膝的积水前进。

  暴雨令城市交通系统受到不小的影响，除了火车站外当地数家医院也积水严重。暴雨雷电天气不仅影响了航班起降，还引发了野火。尽管当地政府试图关闭车站积水区域来尽快疏通排水系统，但瑞典交通管理局表示，夏季暴雨导致的延误还将持续。

• A train station in Uppsala, Sweden flooded after a heavy storm over the weekend.
• Floating on inflatables with scuba masks and water guns, some residents decided to turn the platforms into a swimming pool.
• The city pumped out the water Sunday night, and the station has now returned to normal.

When a city experiences a torrential downpour, it’s common for underground subway stations to flood (there’s nowhere for the water to go but down).
A train station in downtown Uppsala, Sweden, saw major flooding, due to a heavy storm over the weekend. With flood levels rising knee-deep in some areas, it seemed like it would only be logical to abandon the station until the water drained.
But some residents had a different idea: They turned the train platforms into a massive swimming pool. On Instagram, several people have posted photos of locals relaxing on inflatables, suggesting that there can be plenty of imaginative uses for public spaces – even when they flood.

​

Tony Svanström, who observed the scene, wrote on Instagram that it wasn’t long before security told the floaters to leave. There were reportedly concerns that the water would electrify.

​

Another man brought goggles and a water gun, in addition to an inflatable. And a woman named Sarah Thorén brought flippers, a scuba mask, and an umbrella. A Stockholm-based outlet called Svenska Dagbladet captured them in the photos below:


Thorén, a photographer, posted a video of what ensured as well:


“I wouldn’t say it was the freshest water I’ve ever bathed in, so I had to have a real scrub in the shower afterwards,” she told The Local.
The city pumped out the water Sunday night, and the station has now returned to normal.

Heavy rains across Sweden in the midst of a record-breaking heat wave have turned Uppsala Central Station into a swimming pool. While some commuters struggled to reach firm ground, others turned it into a Nordic Luau.
Water filled the corridors of the Uppsala main railway station following torrential summer rain, disrupting traffic at Sweden’s fourth largest city on Sunday. While authorities and emergency services were dealing with the chaos, some locals decided to have some summer fun, splashing around the main escalator which leads into the station.




Wearing full snorkeling gear, local photographer Sarah Thorén snapped and recorded a video of her family swimming under the flooded bridge of the station.
"The water was really dirty! But it was okay.. but we really needed a long shower after," Thorén told RT. "It was really fun, but I was wondering why someone didn't fix it.....I didn't see any police, fireman etc....very strange"

Others were not having that much fun as they had to carry their heavy luggage above their heads.




While authorities closed off the flooded part of the station before attempting to unblock the water collection drains as soon as they could, the Swedish Transport Administration reported ongoing delays because of torrential summer rains.


In addition to the train station flooding, the Forum Gallery and Akademiska hospital in Uppsala were also affected. Lightning from the thunderstorms also caused wildfires and affected air traffic throughout the country.
