The second level hydrological warning is already valid in several districts. In the next territory, the first level warnings also apply. For central and eastern Slovakia, the first -degree meteorological warnings of storms are also announced. The Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute (SHMI) informed about it on his website.
- The SHMI declared the second level hydrological alerts in selected districts.
- Meteorological first -level meteorological warnings apply in central and eastern Slovakia.
- First level alerts apply in several Slovak districts.
- A significant local rise in water levels is expected in tidal rainfall.
- There are flood phenomena outside the streams according to SHMI.
Hydrological alerts of the second stage are currently in the districts Kosice-okolie, Gelnica, Presov, Svidnik, Stropkov, Medzilaborce and Snina. The first stage of such alert is declared in districts Námestovo, Veľký Krtíš, Bardejov, Humenné and Trebišov.
“Due to the tidal collisions during storms, we assume a temporary significant local rise in water levels, especially on small streams with the possibility of achieving and exceeding water conditions corresponding to the level of flood activity. Is a prerequisite for the occurrence of accompanying flood phenomena outside the streams”Said the Institute for the Hydrological Alerts of the Second Stage.
