"There is concern for a major flooding event to unfold across parts of central
and eastern Europe over the coming days, with weather models for a while now
predicting an unprecedented deluge in the coming days, raising the spectre of
catastrophic floods reminiscent of the devastating inundations that struck the
region in 2013. Meteorologists in central European countries in are even
suggesting this could be a one-in-a-150-200 year flooding event, with concern
about the current weather models showing rare extreme amounts of rainfall in
such a short period of time - which can have catastrophic consequences.
Weather models predict up to 500 litres of precipitation per square meter in
some parts of Central Europe in the coming days. Uncertainties in weather
models still exist, but the potential is there for a serious flooding event to
unfold. It is likely there will be a threat of devastating floods for parts of
several countries in central and eastern Europe, namely the south of Germany,
the Czech Republic, Austria, western Poland and northwestern Slovakia."
