What the source measured
PEGELONLINE reported: Very High Water: BAKE Z on NORDSEE | Current level: 613 cm
The gauge on the NORDSEE read 613 cm, reported by STANDORT CUXHAVEN.
The gauge stands at kilometre 755.9 of that watercourse.
That figure is a height above the gauge's own zero mark, which sits at -5.03 m on its operator's datum — it is not the depth of the water.
Urban PEI: 266 within a heuristic 30 km radius; not unique people.
At this point we have recorded a water level between 400 cm and 697 cm, over 3,073 readings since 31 August 2026. Today's reading sits 72% of the way up that range.
