Hydrologists extend warning about Danube flash floods

Hydrologists have extended Code Orange and Code Yellow warnings regarding the occurrence of flash floods on the Danube throughout March 12, 02.00 p.m, local.

According to the National Hydrology and Water Management Institute, throughout March 5, 06.00 a.m. – March 1202.00 p.m., local, a Code Orange is maintained on the Danube in the Calafat¬Zimnicea sector (southern Romania), in Dolj, Olt and Teleorman counties (south).

Likewise, Code Yellow warning remains in force on the Danube, in the Gruia and Giurgiu¬Tulcea sectors, in eight counties: Mehedinti (south), Giurgiu (south), Calarasi (south), Ialomita (south), Constanta (south-east), Braila, Galati and Tulcea (east).

Considering the current hydrologic situation, the forecast of the hydro-meteorological developments in the Danube Basin upstream from its entry into Romania (Bazias, south-west) has been updated to account for the propagation of previously formed flash floods on the Danube.
