Danger of flooding
Minor flooding feared after rainfall
The good news: by midday on Friday, the flood warning limits had "only" been exceeded in Linz and Achleiten, and the trend is downwards. For this reason, the mobile flood protection in Upper Austria is now only in place in Linz, although it will remain in place over the weekend.
The bad news: rain is expected again today, Saturday. "This can lead to small-scale flooding in small bodies of water," says Thomas Auer from the Upper Austrian Hydrographic Service. For the Danube and the Inn, however, there is no danger of flooding on Saturday.
Unstable weekend
This does not mean that the risk of high river levels is generally a thing of the past. Because: "In the night to Monday and on Monday there will be more precipitation in terms of area, also in Bavaria in the tributaries," says meteorologist Maximilian Stärz from GeoSphere Austria.
It will also be unsettled at the weekend. Although Saturday and Sunday will start out quite friendly, from midday onwards, heavy showers are to be expected in the mountains, predicts Stärz.
