From-for sharp thawing of snow the earth does not have time to absorb the moisture, causing the water level in the reservoirs increases.
In the next few days weather forecasters promise in Kiev, a sustainable zero temperature. And on Friday, February 24, the thermometer column will rise to +12. In this “heat” all the snow will melt and the streets of the capital will turn into a lake.
Using data obtained from traffic services and our readers, “Explorer” has mapped most flood-prone city streets.
From-for sharp thawing of snow the earth does not have time to absorb the moisture, causing the water level in the reservoirs increases. For example, according to the Central geophysical Observatory, the water level in the river, starting Sunday, has risen to 9 cm.
However, in the case of flooding a great danger to the capital is still not the Dnieper river, and small rivers. The resulting increase in the level of the water puddles from the streets leaving behind.
Such problems occur in the rivers Nyvka, Raw, cascade lakes Opechee on the street Athletic, the type of melioration channel. But most of all, this concerns the river Lybid. She flooded a number of streets: Starovokzalna, Pestel, Moscow square and Victory square, as well as train tracks and transformer substations.
Another issue of flooding – narrow collectors that were built 40-50 years ago. Their diameter is insufficient for simultaneous passage of a large volume of water.
To avoid flooding, road services, you must immediately clean the storm drains on the roads from accumulated ice and snow, otherwise many city streets literally can go under water.
