My home town is slowly getting problems with the flood...
The water level is already 3 times as high as normal and is supposed to become even higher within the next 3-4 days...
Yesterday I went for a walk and couldn`t even take my normal route as it was already 2m under water...
Today even the route I took yesterday is no longer possible to take...
But one thing is great here. So many helpers from everywhere. In especially the students are working since Monday day and night non stop.

That doesn't sound good  Let's hope the water problems will be over soon.

We are sending a lot of water your way now Roturn, in Czech Republic situation is better and water is on the move to Germany. Good luck to everyone there and you too of course.

At the moment the water coming is still from Germany. We expect the "Czech water" being here at the weekend.
Problem is the long term of high water which causes lots of problems for the dams, who need to stand lots of pressure.
My home should be safe though as it`s another 4-5m above the actual water level, but other parts are already flooded before the highest level is reached. |

I don't know
No water problems in Holland. Instead, it's the first week with amazing(= 20 degrees Celcius+ here ) weather this year. And I love it, it was really time for that.

The "Austrian water" is slowly reaching us, it's expected to peak at the weekend at an all time maximum level.
This sums up the situation:

Here in Northern Norway we've had either +20 or +25 degrees for three straight weeks now. We've had about 3-4mm of rain over that whole period.
You took our water!

I don't think it's rained here since January, and even then it wasn't more than a mm or two.
