The Elbe region in Saxony was affected by heavy flooding following strong rainfall in conjunction with snowmelt in the Krkonose Mountains (Czech Republic). The Elbe river rose to a level of 7.45 meters. In the city of Dresden, areas near the river had to be evacuated. Along the Elbe, whole districts of several towns were flooded. A state of emergency was declared in four Saxony counties.
