“水城”威尼斯遭遇半个多世纪以来的最严重涨潮，全城80%被淹没，最高水位达187厘米。

在很多人心中到意大利威尼斯旅游，没有在圣马可广场喂鸽子留影，旅程可算不完整。但是现在这里是却是另一副世界末日的景象。

威尼斯市长Brugnaro 表示，著名的圣马可大教堂遭受了“严重破坏”。周二，这座地标建筑的地下室完全被淹没，人们担心大教堂的柱子可能受到结构性破坏。

Brugnaro警告说：“损失将达数亿欧元。”

气象记录显示，近年来威尼斯洪水频繁。威尼斯市长将此次特大洪水归咎于气候变化，称它会给威尼斯留下“一个永久的伤口”。

The mayor of Venice, Luigi Brugnaro, blamed climate change for the highest water levels in more than 50 years this week, saying the impact was "huge" and would leave "a permanent mark".

威尼斯市长Luigi Brugnaro将50年来的最高水位归结于气候变化，称其影响是“巨大的”，并将留下“永久性的痕迹”。

Only once since official records began in 1923, however, has the tide been higher than it reached this week - hitting 1.94m in 1966.

自从1923年有正式记录以来，只有1966年的洪水超过这次的水位，达到1.94米。

This latest Acqua Alta (high water) occurrence in Venice is the second highest tide the city has experienced in recorded history. However, if we look at the top 10 tides, five have occurred in the past 20 years and the most recent was only last year.

这是威尼斯有记录以来严重程度排第二的水灾。有历史记录以来的十大水灾，有5次是在近20年内发生的。最近一次就在去年。
