FPS Interior decided on Friday evening to temporarily activate the 1722 intervention number after the Royal Meteorological Institute (IRM) issued a poor weather warning. The IRM issued a yellow rain alert in Wallonia on Saturday morning, which will be in effect until Sunday at 21:00.
“The accumulation of precipitation may in places exceed 251 litres squared in 24 hours in the south of the Sambre and Meuse furrow,” the IRM warned.
The wet conditions will lead to the formation of fog over most of the regions on late Sunday night and Monday morning, potentially creating dangerous driving conditions.
