Trier gauge — Moselle water levels
Held by locks Level held by locks. Weirs keep a working depth through a drought, so the risk on this stretch is high water and lock operations — not low water.
Trier is the Mosel wine capital and a Roman city, and the barrage below it is one of 28 that hold this river at a working depth. What binds here is flood and lock state, not drought.

normal on mean low/high water (MNW/MHW) · normal on navigational reference levels (NSW/HSW) — the publisher's own classification of its own reading.
No official high-water mark is transcribed for this gauge from a source we have read, so none is shown. Read the authority's notices.
Twenty-eight barrages hold the Moselle from Koblenz past Trier to the Luxembourg border, so a low reading here closes nothing. No numeric closure mark is published for these gauges in a source we have read, so none is invented.

Trier's own forecast page — opens the Rhineland-Palatinate flood centre
The only authority that forecasts this gauge, and its page says the limit out loud: because the weirs hold this water, a Trier forecast is only possible above 260 cm, and everything below that is drawn as a flat line. So on a low-water day there is no forecast here to read — which is itself the answer for water the weirs keep at a working level.
Waterlogged does not reproduce or interpret the values on this page. The state service publishes this as its own product, so its forward figures are linked and never mirrored.

ELWIS — German federal waterways notices and navigation information
The official notices channel for commercial navigation on the German waterways: closures, lock works and high-water restrictions in the authority's own wording. Its gauge pages also show the forecast for that gauge where a German authority publishes one, and leave the forecast column empty where none exists.
ELWIS content is OpenData. Commercial reuse is allowed only when the content is unchanged and credited “www.elwis.de”; ELWIS's own terms also permit links to its pages, as long as the source and the address “www.elwis.de” are named. Waterlogged may show a short quote word for word with that credit and a link. A paraphrase counts as an alteration, so we never rewrite notice content in our own words.

Moselle gauge at Trier, live from PEGELONLINE (DL-DE/Zero 2.0) — 221 cm at 2026-08-02T22:45+02:00 on first wiring. IMPOUNDED CORRIDOR: the Moselle is lock-held from Koblenz to Schengen, so an ordinary low reading here closes nothing and the gauge carries no low-water line. It is wired because the corridor's real interruption risk is HIGH water and lock operations — see docs/corridor_model_transfer_luna.md §1, verdict needs-adapted-model / flood-tail-first.
