Pas-de-Calais: the department once again on orange flood alert. Nearly 10,000 homes damaged in November and January.
Rainfall accumulations expected on Wednesday should be between 20 and 30 mm, but could reach up to 50 mm in places. “Road traffic conditions may be difficult across the entire secondary network and some disruptions may affect rail transport,” it is specified in a press release from the prefect of the Northern defense and security zone. The department was affected by several weeks of trying floods in November, almost three times normal.
