In several places around the county, water levels have risen significantly over the past week.
In Mulseryd in Jönköping municipality, the river Nissan has now completely flooded and Reine Johansson is one of the cottage owners who have been affected by the new water levels.
He says he thinks the water will rise another ten centimeters before it recedes.
