Danube has grown 2 cm in the last few hours, with the Danube level reported on Wednesday afternoon in Giurgiu (southern Romania) standing at 615 cm, which is 45 cm past the warning level.

According to the Giurgiu Couty Prefect, the Danube level at 2:00 p.m., local, reached 615 cm, 45 cm past the 570-cm warning level. Given the situation, the dammed areas Giurgiu-Vedea-Pietrosani ?i Giurgiu-Vedea-Slobozia have entered stage one defence, meaning that the dams are permanently monitored and around the clock services have been set up at the mayoralties of the Danube riparian localities.

No facilities are affected and the Danube flooding level in the Giurgiu sector amounts to 640 cm; Danube can come close to this level towards the end of the week when it is estimated that the Code Yellow warning regarding the increase of the Danube level in the area will be exceeded.
