Consequence

Advice
Stay informed on the situation. Secure and/or move assets away from vulnerable areas (car, caravan along rivers/streams, basements). It is recommended to Keep away from rivers and streams with high flow.
Description
The combination of rain and continuous snow melting will increase water discharge. Rapid increase of discharge in small and medium sized rivers is expected. Hydropower production will in some cases act as flood control, and therefore the issued warning will not necessarily apply to all regulated waterways.
