Munich (dpa / lby) – continuous rain has caused the water level of many rivers in Bavaria to rise. The areas of the smaller southern tributaries to the upper Danube, the Altmühl, on the upper reaches of the Iller and Lech, the Bavarian Lake Constance tributaries and the Inn area are particularly affected, as the Bavarian flood news service reported on Saturday. “On medium-sized and larger rivers, which are observed by the level measuring points with reporting levels, the amounts of rain have so far only occasionally led to overflows.” Due to the very dynamic weather development, however, floods are difficult to predict.
The rain should slowly shift towards the east during Saturday. Storms are still possible in the Alps, it said. Floods are still possible throughout Bavaria.
