The river Seine floods in Paris
Flood barrier sheet are installed at the dock entrance on January 26, 2018, as the River Seine, which runs through the French capital Paris, is expected to reach a peak of up to 6.2 metres (20.3 feet) on a scale used to measure its levels by January 27, making it four to five metres above its normal height. The Seine continued its relentless rise flooding quays with muddy water and putting museums on an emergency footing as record rainfall pushed rivers over their banks across northeastern France.
