Trees fell in various places. In Anhée, this Friday evening, rue de la Molignée. But also this Saturday morning: at Rochefort, rue de Haid and rue de Ramatenne; at Ciney, rue des Ecoles; at Dinant, at Froidvaux. At 10am, in Beauraing, a tree was threatening to fall, Grand Nichet Avenue. At the same time, in Anhée, pebbles fell on the pavement of Dinant. At 9:20, firefighters were called for torn tiles in Hastière.

Floods either did not fail. Water in cellars? There were some last night at Onhaye, rue de la Brbaderie. In Vierves-sur-Viroin (Viroinval) too, this Saturday morning, along the watercourse, rue de la Gare (1 m of water in the cellar). Or at Rochefort, rue des Neuf-Étangs (15 to 20 cm).

In Onhaye, always this Saturday morning, it is downright the ground floor of a house that was flooded a few centimeters, at the street Les Communes.

In Rochefort, around noon, an individual asked for sacks of sand: the ventilated space in his house was flooded.

In Mariembourg (Couvin), in the industrial estate, a vehicle got stuck early in the morning on Veroffe Street. In height, there was, at this place, between 30 and 40 cm of water. The relief helped the occupants get out of the car that they had to move too.

In Olloy-sur-Viroin (Viroinval), firefighters were called by an individual concerned about the fate of animals while the fields on the banks of the Viroin are still flooded. Their diagnosis on the spot was rebaduring.

Downward trend

Flooded roads this morning? In Dinant, rue des Forges, and in Corenne (Florennes), rue du Couvent.

For the night from Saturday to Sunday, Gilles Boonen, spokesman for the DinaPhi area is rather rebaduring. "The pre-alert phase, activated when the streams rise, is maintained. But the trend is down. We are far from the situation of last Sunday. That said, the Meuse always tends to swell late, the time that the waters of the Lesse end up in bed. There may be some small excesses here and there. "
