A dramatic video has emerged of severe flooding on a street in Athens, Greece on Friday.

The footage shows a heavy torrent of floodwater rushing through a street in the western suburbs of the Greek capital.

According to local reports, 14 centimetres of rain was recorded in the space of 90 minutes.

Meteorologists say the heavy rainfall was tied to the remnants of Hurricane Gonzalo that hit parts of Europe last week.
