Floods near Danube river subside

A combination of two images shows a gauge for the water level of the Danube river in the Bavarian village of Niederalteich, June 6, 2013, and on June 23 after the waters subsided. Insurance claims for flood damage in Germany may be as much as 6 billion euros ($8 billion), catastrophe modelling firm AIR Worldwide said last week after the worst flooding in a decade.
