Worth on the Rhine River - Intense rain leads to inundating waters.

The massive amount of water in the streams caused them to rise rapidly, especially the Heilbach. As a result, several basements in the residential area around Hagenbacher Straße were flooded, requiring the fire department to aid the residents with technical equipment. The soaked ground caused trees to fall and Hagenbacher Straße to become submerged. The street was completely shut down at the end of town leading towards Hagenbach. The K22 between Büchelberg and Berg and the K16 between Büchelberg and Scheibenhardt also had to be closed due to flooding.

The duration of the closures will depend on the weather conditions and how quickly the water recedes. The police are urging people not to enter the flooded areas, as it can be dangerous.
