Right now
The most recent data we hold from PEGELONLINE arrived 25 hours ago, and this point is in it.
2 other detections within 20 km in the last 24 hours, the nearest 10 km from here.
Reported by PEGELONLINE today.
It is one of only 4 we have recorded within 20 km of this point since 19 September 2026. The last comparable one was on 19 September 2026. One more was recorded here in the fortnight before it.
What the source measured
PEGELONLINE reported: High Water: BAKE A on NORDSEE | Current level: 452 cm
The gauge on the NORDSEE read 452 cm, reported by STANDORT CUXHAVEN.
The gauge stands at kilometre 755.7 of that watercourse.
That figure is a height above the gauge's own zero mark, which sits at -5.09 m on its operator's datum — it is not the depth of the water.
At this point we have recorded a water level between 400 cm and 715 cm, over 4,439 readings since 31 August 2026. Today's reading sits 17% of the way up that range.
