Flooding in 3, 2, 1

[Bram Hengeveld]

There has been so much rainfall in western Europe the last couple of weeks. In combination with the high temperatures of the year I think next week we will be up for some good old flooding here and there.

Are you having wet feet already?

Are you having wet feet already?

I guess you could say that...

I´m good, i live in one of the highest points in my city so everything will just go away from us

100m above sea level for me.

Getting quite critical here in the lowlands to be honest. We had a small disaster like ten years ago with flooding and despite all the promises of the government to rebuild some strategic dykes not much has happened on the water infrastructure for the rivers.

Especially in the southern provinces I think the people are getting quite nervous with the water level rising.

Here it's the snow that's rising, 3 snowstorms in barely 2 weeks

...And here it's the temperature that's rising. All of next week is over 40 Celsius as far as I'm aware...

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Do we need to send some fresh water in your direction Rhys?

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

Yes please...

 

[Paul M Jones]

I'm 131m above sea level, I think I'll be fine..
