After the flood in Orne, the time has now come to assess the damage. This is particularly the case for Alima who is only waiting for the tow truck to tow her broken down car. In Livarot, in Calvados, a cleaning company is working in apartments and elevators. About six cubic meters of water seeped into it. The objective is to put these infrastructures back into service as soon as possible. In this town, due to rising water levels, around ten victims were evacuated this Thursday morning by emergency services. The La Vie river burst its banks around four in the morning, following very heavy rains during the night. The equivalent of three weeks of precipitation fell in 24 hours. In a business along the river, the damage is considerable and losses are expected to be significant. Tomorrow, Friday, the company’s employees will return to work to clean the premises. Insurers are expected to estimate the cost of damage. TF1 | Report L. Barbier, A. Santos, X. Thoby
