Sandbags are being prepared in Austria, Czech reservoirs emptied, and flash floods expected in Poland.
At least this time it is taken more seriously than in 2002.
I recently listened to a podcast about food prevention, and one mayor went on record saying they don't want to build floodplains to alleviate flooding issues downriver because the last flood originated somewhere else.
It took me a bit to find the live map so I'll just leave the link here for anyone interested. Unfortunately it doesn't zoom out more.

This may be better, you can set the cumulative precipitation so it gives better picture of the situation.
This was posted 2 days ago on mastodon. The guy makes info graphics for CHMU (Czech meteorogical institute).
In JesenÃky mountains- more than 300mm
Where I live worst forecast- nearly year worth of rain in 3 days
Brno totally unprepared (don't have finished flood mitigation) so they evacuate...
Yes it looks scary but they had at least few days to prepare dams (in 97' and 02' floods it wasn't the case). So it shouldn't be that bad.
Yesterday was published map of expected flooding. https://www.irozhlas.cz/zpravy-domov/povoden-voda-rozliv-zaplavy_2409132312_cib
