Default Flooding in Cochem
I know some of you have seen this shared on facebook but thought i'd repost here for those that haven't. The original post is here:
https://www.facebook.com/magnus.hans...97873510227906

Last year the waters were high during our visit, but not like this. Pretty much all the shops/bars along the riverfront are underwater at ground floor level.

Apologies for large image sizes, they're straight off the facebook post...







Looks like they've removed the pumps from the Shell garage to prevent them getting damaged.


This is the junction with the traffic lights where you loop back round to get onto the bridge...








Parking on the right hand riverbank underwater...
