Flood warnings due to heavy rain

Flood warnings have been issued across the Czech Republic due to the heavy rainfall that continued through Friday and into Saturday morning, causing water levels in local rivers to rise in the central, southern, and western parts of Czechia, including areas of the Central Bohemian region south of Prague.

A low-level flood warning (from a three-degree scale) has been issued for most of the areas, with a high-level warning issued for Chrudim in the Pardubice region and an extreme-level warning issued for Dačice in the South Bohemian region. The situation is expected to calm down by Saturday evening.
