Floridiana Posted August 28, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Is ANYbody making it to Budapest???? Doesn't sound like it :( No problems reported between Passau and Budapest. That's a very popular stretch for river cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVilleGal Posted August 28, 2015 #4 Share Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) No problems reported between Passau and Budapest. That's a very popular stretch for river cruises. Actually reports yesterday of boats unable to get Passau so yes there are issues again....yesterday's report was from someone currently there and saw boats stacked up...again :( Can someone find illumination for me, I can see where she has not moved in 2 days. She is supposed to be in Budapest but I'm thinking she is not. Maybe I'm doing it wrong but ShipTracker had been working for me earlier. :( Edited August 28, 2015 by JVilleGal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare notamermaid Posted August 30, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) It does not look to good on the Danube this morning according to official water gauge stations. The levels are still falling and quite a few, not just Vilshofen, show low water. It is very warm over there and substantial rain is not forecast till Wednesday, at the moment. Perhaps someone closer to the Danube can give more info. My beloved Rhine is likewise falling at several stations in the Middle Rhine valley, but here the overall situation is not too bad. The Moselle is still o.k. in the stretches important to river cruisers. The Main appears a bit low as well. notamermaid Edited August 30, 2015 by notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
