Flooding For The First Time This Year
Hello, everyone! ππ·
After less than a year, we have floods here again. Heavy rains lasted all last week, and the river Reka, which flows in the valley, flooded. It's not as bad as last time and took less time.

The river is not particularly large, but it's a torrential river. It collects all the water from the SneΕΎnik hills, and during such heavy downpours, all the water flows into the valley. There are floods once or twice a year, at the beginning of spring, as now, and then sometimes in autumn.
Looking at the other side of the road, I was particularly interested here because I have a field next to it, and I was worried about whether it had been watered.
The water usually reaches the edge of my field. And so it was this time.
How long will this take? It usually never takes more than a few days.
Well, it didn't take long; here are the photos after two days yesterday. Although it was still raining, the water had receded, and the river had returned to its course.
And what about my field?
Eh, the bottom half is still full of water, but the top half is not. Since floods are expected, I accept them as part of nature here.
My only concern is when it will all dry out so we can start planting vegetables. The weather forecast for next week is not very promising, with a week of rain forecast again. Maybe I should start planting rice? I don't know, haha. It's not that warm here, and in summer, the drought makes the soil hard as rock. Ah, I'll figure something out. :) π
Thank you for your attention.
