to the other) and the bridge entirely rebuilt in the 1970s and no-one remembers where the statue was in the first place so that there is no hope in hell you would be able to measure anything with that thing. in 1910, the Zouave was said to have had water up to his neck. For those who are interested in measuring floods, Austerlitz (East of the City) is where you have to be. For those interested too in knowing why it happened \u2014 and it&#8217;s not finished &#8230; \u2014 we had heavy and unusual rainfalls for close to 100 days unabated (i.e. almost as much as it rains in a whole year!) and the Marne, upstream starting overflowing, which caused the Seine to flood its banks. It happened slowly because the Marne flows slower than other rivers for some reasons. Having said that, even 100 days of rain here amount to nothing compared to what a City like Seattle receives every Winter.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3382\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/antimuseum.com\/en\/2018\/02\/11\/the-city-of-water\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?fit=1356%2C1464&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1356,1464\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Feb-11-2018_15.00.46-CapturFiles\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?fit=948%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3382 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?resize=1000%2C1080&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Feb-11-2018_15.00.46-CapturFiles water\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?w=1356&amp;ssl=1 1356w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?resize=278%2C300&amp;ssl=1 278w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?resize=948%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 948w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?resize=768%2C829&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?resize=1200%2C1296&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/feb-11-2018_15-00-46-capturfiles.png?resize=800%2C864&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 90vw, (max-width: 1024px) 85vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This map shows deficits or surplus of rain area by area in percentages.
