A few kilometers south of Szolnok the Tisza is joined by the River Koros, and a Hungarian friend of mine, Julia, lives in a village near the confluence. That region is being hit hard by the floods and many people have been evacuated. I've told Juli that if her family needs help sandbagging, she can call me.
Meanwhile, Sunday I captured some good pictures of the Tisza at flood stage:
Efforts to create mini-locks by sandbagging (note the tree in the distance underwater)
This home has been underwater for weeks. The windows you see are on the second story!
If you didn't believe me that the windows are on the second story, look on the left of the home...that's a basketball hoop!
I think the "Parking" sign should read "Mooring"
