Potential danger Saturday 18.05.2024

Today and tomorrow, the water levels remain in an elevated range around the water level of 530 cm at the Stadtbredimus gauge (Remich: 452 cm).

A temporary high of 532 cm was reached at the Stadtbredimus gauge during the night. A slight rise in water levels is possible. However, this forecast is still subject to uncertainty.

Please note:

The high water levels on the Saar cause additional backwater on the Moselle. However, this influence is difficult to predict. The water levels in Wasserbillig (Moselle and Sauer) may therefore be significantly higher than calculated and flooding must be expected. The CGDIS emergency services are on heightened alert in this regard.

 

As far as the situation in Remich is concerned, the Remich-Stadtbredimus connection is temporarily affected by work on a gate at the Stadtbredimus dam. This situation is not expected to have any appreciably aggravating consequences compared with comparable floods in the past.

A flood report is available for the Moselle:
