Comments:
An unusual period of warm weather during the first week of March 1999 has provoked excessive spring snow melting, resulting in flooding in several regions of the Republic of Belarus. Floods now affecting many parts of Belarus contaminated by the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear explosion, may pollute rivers flowing into the Baltic and Black seas.
