It is recommended to Keep away from rivers and streams with high flow. Emergency authorities must be prepared for the fact that building and infrastructure in general may be subject to serious incidents.
The combination of rain and continuous snow melting will increase water discharge. Heavy rain will increase water discharge in rivers. Water discharge is expected to rise in the major rivers. Hydropower production will in some cases act as flood control, and therefore the issued warning will not necessarily apply to all regulated waterways. The warning level is increased/decreased.
