    My hometown is flooded! (more pics in #11)

    Temperatures were rising last weekend and all the snow we had was melting... the results: floods! Way too much water for our three rivers, so my hometown is severely affected by the floods; people say it's the worst we had since 1995.

    Many of our streets are under water and blocked. Wanted to take a pic from one of our viewpoints high above the city, but no way to get there.

    So all I have are these pics:

    I saw these on FB and thought the same as Mary. Are you able to get the necessary items like food and other supplies?

    I hope the flooding goes down quickly.

    Thanks for your concern! My house is not affected, and it's no problem to get to the shops. Don't know about the people in the flooded houses, I guess most of them can still leave them through their backdoors.

    Gosh, that's quite a bit of water! It looks pretty, though. Glad to hear you can get to the shops, but you better put your wellies on!
