The moisture of Leslie's dissipating extratropical remnant fed a quasi-stationary cold front over southwestern France, generating heavy thunderstorms and leading to flash flooding in that area.[55] Carcassonne received 160–180 mm (6.3–7.1 in) of rainfall within five hours; water level in the city rose 8 m (26 ft) during that period. At least 14 people died because of the flash flood, mainly in the town of Villegailhenc, Aude. This was partially due to the fact that the Aude River rose to a height of 7 m (23 ft), its highest level since 1891.[56] Wind gusts of 111 km/h (69 mph) and wave heights of 7.8 m (26 ft) were recorded in Sète.[57] Damage in Aude were calculated at €200 million (US$231 million).[58]
