Sverdlovsk region may once again go underwater.
An expert warned about the risk of repeated floods in the Sverdlovsk region.
In the Sverdlovsk region, floods may occur again this summer. The likelihood of flooding will depend on where heavy rains fall. This was reported to EAN by Dmitry Klimenko, an associate professor at the Department of Water Management and Water Technology at UrFU.
According to the specialist, water has already begun to rise in the Chusovaya River. He explained that the development of the flood directly depends on where precipitation falls - in the upper reaches of rivers or in the territory of their basins. This determines which settlements may be at risk of flooding.
Recall that at the end of July, heavy rains caused a large-scale flood in the Sverdlovsk region. Water flooded hundreds of residential houses and garden plots, as well as inundated several sections of roads, leading to traffic restrictions. The most difficult situation developed in Irbit and the Irbit district.
At the same time, almost the entire monthly norm of precipitation fell in the first days of August.
