VTM NIEUWS reporter Klaas Danneel vanuit Westhoek: “There is no time here, there are straten in the water on the water” | Water overload in the Westhoek

If the morning is the water in the straten nor light is present, then the vanuit stavele shows, a deep gemeente van Alveringem. Rond 13 uur was the level het hoogst, maar de komende uren zou het stilaan moeten zakken. “Het water staat tot aan de huizen, maar zandzakjes beletten dat het innenstroomt,” he sounds.

In the area around Stavele, Poperinge and Roesbrugge, the largest area was used. “Maar hoewel het hier al meer dan eighttien uur droog is, is the level of electricity, in Lo-Reninge, wel still aan hetijgen,” says Danneel. In the city there is also a night in which there is no water in the area.

Ok on other places the water is still there at the moment. This is also the case at the IJzer in Woumen near Diksmuide, which was one of the children’s homes on the borders of the three-thirds of the country. Also in the Leie-Bekken, on the sea from Ledegem en Moorsele, it is still heavily waterlogged. “The governor told me that he was still there in West Vlaanderen,” says Danneel.
