The Royal Meteorological Institute (IRM) has issued a yellow rain alert for the provinces of Liège, Namur and Luxembourg from Monday at 10:00 p.m. The warning is valid until Tuesday 10:00 p.m. for Liège and Namur while it extends until Wednesday 10:00 p.m. for Luxembourg.
Between Monday evening and Tuesday evening, accumulations of 25 to 40 liters of water per square meter are expected south of the Sambre and Meuse furrow. They could “very locally exceed 50 l/m2”, warns the IRM.
Between Tuesday evening and Wednesday evening, “another 15 to 35 additional l/m2” are expected, especially in the south of the country.
The provinces of Namur, Liège and Luxembourg are placed on yellow alert. In the other provinces, “the threshold for a warning is just not reached”, underlines the IRM. The amounts of precipitation that will fall there in the next three to four days will remain significant, warns the institute.
“The situation should be monitored closely because this warning could be extended to other provinces and/or extended over time.”
The move to the next alert level (orange) “cannot be ruled out in the south of the country either”.
