In the Jewish Autonomous Region, Khabarovsk and Amur region, the confrontation of man and the elements: the rescuers, the military, local residents and volunteers are building levees to protect themselves and their homes from the water until the level rises above the Amur. In EAO expect start the weekend will be crucial — it must come flood peak. And in Khabarovsk, where the water level has exceeded a record 120-year-old, a disappointing forecast. Meanwhile, in the Amur region has come a new wave of floods.
«Flood peak in the region is not yet complete. Today is a day the water in different areas came from 3 to 10 centimeters «- quoted by ITAR-TASS EAO Governor Alexander Vinnikov.
He recalled that the water in the EAO requires constant monitoring because of the flooding of the anthrax cattle burial. «Fortunately, the water sample say that this infection is not detected in the water,» — said Vynnyky, adding that the area flooded 832 houses, home to more than 4000 people, a quarter of them — children.
Dramatic way things are going in the Khabarovsk region: the peak flood is unlikely to have for the near future, despite the fact that water flows coming already hidden the water meter pole that had to quickly build up. In addition, hydrological changes all the time in the direction of increasing the water level forecast: According to the latest data, in the Amur region will rise to the level of 8.3 meters, according to Business FM.
«Most likely, this is not the limit. We have already given the task to build a dam to 8.2-8.5 meters «, — said earlier Khabarovsk Mayor Alexander Sokolov, when hydrologists reported that the water level rises above 780 cm
«Flooding will, unfortunately, continue to grow. In some areas of the Amur region water gradually recedes. But this process will be short-lived. Expect new rains, resulting in flooding of coastal areas even more, «- said a leading expert weather center» Phobos «Michael Leus. This is despite the fact that the water level has exceeded a meter record 120 years ago, when the water reached the level of 6.2 meters.
