The Czech government has declared a nationwide state of emergency as rising rivers threatened to burst their banks and flood the capital Prague and other towns. From Prague here's Rob Cameron. As the rain falls and the river rises, the people of Prague arrange for an anxious night. Metal flood barriers and sandbags have gone up along the embankments. Most of the metro is closed, and all of the city school children have been told to stay at home tomorrow. A riverside hospital has been evacuated, the city's iconic Charles Bridge is closed. Across the country the floods brought destruction and at least two deaths with several people missing. The river Vltava rises in the woods and hills of South Bohemia, it's burst its banks in many places and its tributaries are overflowing. Other countries in central Europe are also reinforcing their flood defenses, water levels on the Rhine, the Danube and many tributaries are at dangerous levels.
