Major airports are grounded, while the Port of Naples reports cranes toppled and oil terminals aflame. In France, the Riviera\u2019s luxury marinas lie in ruins as billions in private assets wash away.<\/p>\n\n      <div class=\"sx-callout sx-warning\"><strong>?? Official Guidance:<\/strong> Residents in coastal and low-lying zones must evacuate immediately.
