Gauge Andernach — current water level and draft

Loading...

Gauge Andernach is on the Rhine at kilometre 613, on the km 601–624 stretch. The GlW is 91 cm and the fairway depth maintained below it (TuGlW) is 250 cm; after deducting 30 cm of safety margin the official rule of thumb comes out at Andernach +129. In practice Andernach +129 is used here. At high water Marke I is at 550 cm and Marke II — above which the waterway closes — at 760 cm. This gauge has one forecast source: the 2-day forecast from the Hochwasserzentrale Rheinland-Pfalz (red). Upstream lies Koblenz (Mosel), downstream Oberwinter.
