On Thursday morning, data from the Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service indicates a slight drop in water levels in the Leitė, Atmata, and Skirvytė rivers, although they remain at critical levels in Atmata and Leitė. By Wednesday evening, some residents of the flooded Žalgirių village could venture into their yards, although the surrounding areas remained muddy due to the flood. The cold snap on Thursday morning helps in the receding water levels in the region.

The improving situation is also reflected in the accessibility of roads, with at least two routes near Žalgirių being passable again. According to onsite reporter Rolandas Žalgevičius, the overall conditions are significantly improving, and there is a reduced sense of urgency concerning the flooding event. While there were serious concerns during the peak of the flood, it appears that the duration of the incident might have been shorter than expected, sparking relief among residents and emergency services alike.

This incident highlights the ongoing issues of flooding in the coastal regions of Lithuania, raising questions about weather patterns and climate change in the area. While the immediate threat of flooding may have passed, the implications for local infrastructure and future preparedness remain significant. Authorities are likely to review their emergency protocols to better handle potential flooding scenarios in the future, given the recent alarming weather events.
