Pictures Paris Flooded - 2015 and 2016



Paris is flooded now!

I took these pictures last year, 2015. Note that the lower embankment of the Seine has people walking on it. Take a look at the picture of the tip of the Ile de Cite below.  In the pictures showing the flooding (further down below) you will see that the embankment and tip of Ile de Cite are covered with water.

Note also that the bridge posts in 2015 were showing, but now the posts are covered with water.


 









Here are some pictures now, grabbed from the Net. Note that the river now covers the lower embankment of the Seine and most of the bridge posts.
