Danube Runneth Over

The official word, as of yesterday, is that the Danube is 8.58 meters (27 feet) above its normal level, its highest level in 120 years... nature scares me! Yesterday, I recreated photographs that I took in January. The river was frozen back then, but it was at more normal levels. In the pictures on the left, you can see the road that runs along the river (click on the pictures to zoom in). They are completely submerged now.

There were also floods back in 2002.
