Hilariously silly signs from around the world which state the obvious and are just plain daft...
Bungling sign writing around the world have been exposed by a new book which quite literally discovered a new "sign language".

Any idea at all what they were trying to say?

The sign is showing water there. It doesn't look like the kind of service you would brag about.

I think they were trying to warn motorists that the parking area (near a little river) could get flooded if the river was in flood.
