http://www.euronews.net/ Exceptionally high tides swamped Venice today with the 'acqua alta' (high water) rising 131cm above normal and flooding much of the lagoon city, including St Mark's Square. When the waters get that high, some 43% of the city surface is under water.

  • Is there any updates on how it is today? I can't seem to find a video dated 2011.

  • @jaar2001 I am too!

  • Many people use bags as waders: it is really rudimentary. Others wear their rubber boots or waders.
