Rivers in Southwest Finland at small spring flood peaks
The small amount of snow has melted rapidly, especially in Southwest Finland, and rivers have reached their first small flood peaks of the spring in places. For example, the discharges of Rivers Sirppujoki and Uskelanjoki are at their highest levels of the spring, but any rainfall may raise them even higher. In the next few days, the weather will keep getting warmer, but the amount of precipitation forecast is low.
