In Liège, the governor has convened an emergency meeting to prepare measures against possible new floods. Emergency services, fire brigade and shelters are ready to provide assistance. Plans for the evacuation of residents are also ready.
The VRT reports that above places that were previously hit hard, such as Pepinster, a drone with a loudspeaker was deployed this afternoon to call on residents to search the first floor of their homes or to leave.
Heavy rainfall in the Netherlands too
In the Netherlands, too, there is again flooding in various places, says NOS weatherman Gerrit Hiemstra.
Some streets in Oud-Vossemeer, in Zeeland, were flooded. “The cause is a lot of rain due to heavy thunderstorms,” said Hiemstra.
