It is noted that local Telegram channels previously wrote about a missing woman who jumped from a bridge and was carried away into the open sea.

Rescuers were contacted with a missing person report only an hour and a half later.

Due to the weather, specialists could not immediately begin searching. However, as it turned out, there was no need for searching.

Three and a half hours later, the woman swam back herself. It turned out that she had been in the water the entire time, but thanks to being a professional swimmer, she was able to cope with the elements.

It is noted that the bad weather in Kuban will continue. According to weather forecasters, a storm warning has been announced until Monday.

Rescue services recommend not to use inflatable mattresses and other floating devices until the weather improves.
