That's some really epic flooding! I thought it was going to peak August 23 but now they say not till Thursday. I hope people can get away from the danger and stay safe till it's over.

The flood itself is not the biggest problem. The real problem is that winter is pretty harsh in the region and usually comes quite early. Hundreds of houses are ruined and thousands are not suitable for living after they got flooded. People will not get drown but they will definetely freeze! There is no time left to build new houses or even properly repair the damaged ones!
