However along the rivers Krka and Mura waters have not receded and are expected to stay until the end of the week. Worst hit are Pomurje and Dolenjska regions. In Kostanjevica ob Krki people have begun to clean up the mess after the floods only today, as the waters have just receded.

The damage that was done will be assessed by the end of the week. According to preliminary estimates it will be almost twice as high as in 2010, when it was estimated at two and a half million euros. Residents are devastated to see their homes destroyed for the second time in four years. In the second most affected municipality Šentjernej roads have been cleared today.
