Now the snow is melting fast – SMHI warns of high flows in Västerbotten

On Monday, SMHI issued a warning for high flows. The rapid snowmelt has led to high flows in the ditches, streams and rivers, which are rapidly approaching Sävarån, Dalkarsån, Rickleån and Hertsånerälven.

The warning applies from Monday and until further notice. SMHI writes that the flows in some areas may reach a higher warning level later in the week.

The high flows can lead to high current speeds in waterways and the risk of flooding.
