BUCHAREST, Romania, March 8 (UPI) -- Hydrologists watching the levels of the Danube River in Romania extended flash-flood warnings through the end of the week, officials said.
Romania's National Hydrology and Water Management Institute issued flash-flood warnings through Friday for the Danube River basin, the news agency Financiarul reports.
Rain in southern Europe caused the Danube to break its banks. Local officials last week said the river level crested more than 17 inches above the 18-foot warning level.
Portions of southern Romania were under more than 20 feet of water and civil defense teams were deployed to project levees and drainage facilities.
Flooding was expected to ease as the rainy weather moved through the region, though percolation to the ground water extended flood concerns.
Light rain was prevalent in the region last week, with a slight chance of snow forecast for Bucharest for the rest of this week.
