Last week the river started to rise

Some of our neighbours got scared and fled to safer places, where ever that may be. The picture above shows the flooded meadows.

The entrance last weekThis was last week, we could still use our cars and walked around a lot, but now we're on a little island, together with a few neighbours.

Our entrance road now (the last day of the year)

We know we are safe, they promised to rescue us and all annimals are already safe. Just want to wish you:

Happy New Year

Please stay safe and think positiv, when something will happen around you :)


Have a great day!

Farid & Monster

Memories of when I lived in Shrewsbury.
Good luck, keep safe.

Thank you very much Bux, is Shrewsbury at a river?

Happy new year!

Yes, its actually in the bow of the River Severn , almost completely surrounded by water on a good day, with only a narrow spit of dry land.
The town floods every year. Fortunately my house was about 30 feet above the river so I was always dry.
Have a great 2024.

Wow, here I didn't experience this kind of flood, we are still over the water, so lucky I guess. For the coming week the weather forecast is storm and more rain, we'll wait and see....

Good luck Farid.

Thank you very much Bux, we'll party when the water decides to let us in peace :)

When the river goes down will you be alright? Is your home underwater?
Great images.
Thanks for sharing, stay safe,

We're lucky, we're not under water, our neighbours however are but we hear the river.

This picture isn't mine, it shows our area and yes, when the river goes down we will be alright, thanks for asking Sami.

Have a very great new year :)

Thanks for your visual reply. We have little experience with flooding. Central Texas does flood, but not like this? Our rivers are not that big

Best wishes for a prosperous new year,
Sami

Just Google the river Ems in Germany :)

The new year started with building a new website on which I offer people from our area a way to communicate and find belongings back, that were "stolen" by the water.

I wish you all the health in the world for this and all coming years!

We will be rescued, when the water will rise more so in fact, I don't want to be rescued :)

Now you have beach access...grin.

Be safe, be careful, Happy New Year!

Almost Rudy! We live at the river called Ems in Germany, if my neighbours decide not to return after the water is gone we''ll consider it to take over their grounds. In that case we would have direct eye-contact with the, now very rough, river haha.

Thank you very much!

Hang in there, Farid! In 2019, my Salvage yard right by a river flooded, and I had to get rid of a lot of things! Stay safe, my friend! Your images portrayed that nicely!!

The dogs love the water and I started a new website, via which I hope I can help neighbours, so the German/Dutch area to retrieve their belongings. I only used a nice Domain, which stands for something very dead....

I hope the waters recede soon, Farid!

Jeff

There's still some water coming, yesterday a dam broke in our area.

Have a great New Years Eve Jeff!

Farid
