A Waterlogged clear-line is our own arithmetic: the gauge reading at which the published reference depth, minus the ship's draught and a fixed safety allowance, still leaves a comfortable margin. It is not an operator's decision rule and no cruise line uses it.

VNF — French waterway notices (avis à la batellerie)
French waterway closures, lock works and restriction notices, in the authority's own wording.
Waterlogged does not reproduce or interpret the values on this page. No confirmed machine-readable feed or redistribution basis was recovered, so notices are linked, never mirrored.

Gironde Tidal
Tidal water. A single gauge height is a tide phase, not a river recession, and under-keel clearance here is a port question.

Dutch & Belgian waterways Notice-governed
Governed by the waterway authority's notices. Lock availability, dredging, agreed channel depths and temporary restrictions decide this stretch, not a drought reading.
One card cannot describe this: the Waal runs free, the connecting canals are managed, and the Scheldt is tidal. Until the reach is split, treat it as notice-governed.

Rijkswaterstaat Waterinfo — Dutch water levels
Live levels on the Waal, Rhine branches and the Dutch canal and delta network.

Lower Danube Notice-governed
Governed by the waterway authority's notices. Lock availability, dredging, agreed channel depths and temporary restrictions decide this stretch, not a drought reading.
The shallow crossings migrate, so the published fairway soundings and notices are closer to the constraint than any single gauge.

Rain in the next 14 days
Status: rain forecast not yet enabled. Waterlogged shows forecast precipitation only under a paid Open-Meteo commercial contract, and no contract key is configured on this deployment. The official services linked below publish their own rain forecasts.
Rain may slow a fall or create a rise after losses and routing. Waterlogged does not convert this forecast into gauge centimetres or a cruise-disruption probability.

What Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours publishes about disruption
- Named disruption programme found: yes — River Cruise Cover
- Terms differ by booking market: yes, on the evidence read
- Confidence in that finding: confirmed
- Last checked: 2026-08-01
Emerald is in the same group but its cover wording and thresholds are not interchangeable with Scenic's. Each brand and booking market must be read separately.
What we could not establish:
- The exact event that Scenic will treat as activating cover beyond the normal-change examples
- Whether a separate total monetary cap applies in the passenger's market
- The currency and figures for Canada, United States and Australia rather than the EUR rendering reviewed
- Whether a refund-of-unused-remainder is an explicit passenger election right

Operator policies change without notice and differ by booking market and contract version. Waterlogged does not calculate your refund, credit, hotel entitlement or insurance payout, and does not determine cancellation rights or legal remedies. Read the operator's own documents and the terms attached to your booking, and do not cancel pre-emptively on the strength of river data alone.
Linking is not endorsement. The publisher controls its own page, its own values and its own terms. Cruise-line names identify the operator's own documents and remain the property of their owners.
