By Wednesday, the water level had hit 16 feet, more than double the Seine's average 6.5-foot depth. While French meteorological service Meteo Franceno longer expects floodwaters to cross the 20-foot mark at their deepest, as previously predicted, it'll be close.

Paris police told CNNthat water in parts of the Seine will reach 5.95 meters, or just shy of 20 feet, during the evening hours of Sunday night into Monday morning.

It's not quite at the level of a 1910 flood that saw the Seine's deepest point rise to almost 28 feet. It's also short of a June 2016 flood, which saw the Seine's water level hit 21 feet. The second incident is obviously more alarming, since this latest flood is the second such incident in a two-year period.

"Two floodings of the Seine river in less than two years -- we have to change, we have to change the way we build this city," Colombe Brossel, deputy mayor of Paris, told CNN. "We have to understand that climatic change is not a word, it's a reality."

Studies have shown that heavy precipitation events such as this one are becoming more likely and severe as the climate continues to warm, due to human emissions of greenhouse gases.

As the city works to mitigate the effects of flooding and start the lengthy clean-up process, resilient Parisians have stepped up to document the impact of the deluge on social media.
