Floods in Franconia: Rivers cannot hold masses of water
In Vorra, south of Bamberg, the “Rauhen Ebrach” rose sharply.
The “Reiche Ebrach” near Sambach in the Bamberg district was also no longer able to hold the water masses in many places.
In Lower Franconia, the Main flooded numerous footpaths and made it impossible to drive through underpasses in some places.
In Eibelstadt (Würzburg district) the Main sought many paths outside the riverbed.
