As a result of heavy rains in Rome and around the Italian region of Lazio from the shore in the Tyrrhenian sea flooded sediments. The Copernicus satellite, Sentinel-2B this picture was taken February 5, three days after the rains that led to flooding of streets.

The picture shows a view of the river Tiber, which meanders to the South. This is the third longest river in Italy, originates in the Apennine mountains and flows for about 400 km before reaching Rome and empties into the sea near Ostia.

Tiber river plays an important role in the transfer of suspended sediment, so the blue coastal waters are often discolored. However, recent rains have resulted in the Tyrrhenian sea, which is part of the Mediterranean, resulted in an unusually large amount of sediment. The plume of the color of coffee with milk stretched for 28 miles off the coast in the North-West.
