Hochwasser in Austria

The Danube continues to rise. Badly effected here, but not as bad as in the state of Upper Austria, which has seen several towns and villages evacuated.
Austria--Europe in general--isn't prone to extreme weather like hurricanes or tornadoes--they happen occasionally, but not often. But the rising water is impressive.
Remi and I often walk here, in the "Au" --one of the most significant wetlands in Central Europe. But today it was not just wet, but soaking wet. Below is an image of the flooded street (leads down to a yacht club), and a canoe the forest service is using. In the distance, a few people are coming up on a raft.
