Early this morning, the first thunderstorms accompanied by rain made some residents and shopkeepers in the city center of Wavre fear the worst, who were beginning to see the centimeters of water increase over the minutes with this very intense rain.
Following this, the city center was closed to traffic, while firefighters and civil protection intervened to unclog the sewers.
