Continuous rain subsides: This is the state of the floods in Bavaria

What do the heavy rains of the past few days mean for the flood situation in the Free State after several neighboring states suffered severe flooding? And how will the weather develop? Overview.

What is the current flood situation in Bavaria?

There are currently no flood warnings in place for built-up areas in the Free State – except for Passau. However, the flood situation remains tense in some Bavarian areas. At the moment Situation report from the Bavarian Flood Intelligence Service (National Doctorate/External link) It says: “The persistent rainy conditions in southern Bavaria are expected to continue until Tuesday afternoon and will lead to (re)rises in the Lower Danube, in the catchment areas of Isar, Inn, Riegen and Baar at peak reporting levels 1 and 2, in Passau possibly 3.”

in Lower Bavaria The tipping points increased and changed on Tuesday: According to the HND, the Danube water level in Passau exceeded the second-highest warning level of three last night. This means: individual properties or cellars are flooded, many streets, footpaths and parking spaces are closed. The city announced that some bus traffic will be rerouted. The crest of the Danube in Passau is expected to be reached at midday. According to the chart, the water level should remain just below the highest warning level of four.

Shortly before the level 3 was reported, the Kleine Vils peaked at Dettelskirchen in the Landshut district that night. The water level there has dropped slightly since early morning. However, the Isar near Plattling continues to rise: the level there is currently slightly above the declared level 2. This means water in the fields and in some cases traffic disruptions due to flooded streets. According to the HND forecast, the water level in the Rott area near Rohstorf in the Passau district will also rise over the course of Tuesday and head towards level 3. It is not yet certain whether this will be achieved.

in Upper Palatinate Reporting level 2 will only be reached in the morning due to rainfall in Nittenau in the Schwandorf district. According to the HND, the rainfall level could rise further, but probably not reach the second highest reporting level 3. All other measuring points in the Upper Palatinate are currently not reporting any reporting level or the maximum reporting level 1, such as rain in Cham or white precipitation in Lohberg in the Cham district. The HND also warns of overburdens and floods in the districts of Regensburg, Cham and Schwandorf, as well as in the city of Regensburg.

in Upper Bavaria According to the National Superior Administration for National Security, the level of the Tiroler Aachen is still above level one. Since the Tyrolean Aachen flows into the Chiemsee, this affects the northward flow of the Seebrücke. The water level of the Alls is expected to reach level two during the day and remain at a similarly high level for the next few days, according to the current warning issued by the Traunstein Water Management Office. The reason for this is that the water from the Chiemsee is only draining slowly. For communities along the Alls, such as Altenmarkt north of the confluence of the Alls and the Traun, the situation is still comfortable, as Mayor Stefan Birschneider (CSU) emphasizes. The reason is that the Traun, the most dangerous river during floods, has long since receded again.

The Flood Intelligence Service had already confirmed on Sunday: There is no need to fear a flood like the one in Bavaria in June. The following two graphics show the water levels in Bavaria as well as the current flood warnings in the Free State.
