Simme, Oberwil – Discharge
This station shows Discharge on a section of Simme. Other locations may have different values; the river overview brings together the available stations.
Current discharge
3.5m³/s↓
Measurement time:
Current FOEN data are unchecked raw data and may be corrected later. A recent measurement time does not mean that a value has been validated. FOEN data quality
Current context
Down 0.6 m³/s over the last 24 hours.
What does this change mean?
“Largely stable” means the flow has changed by less than 5% from about 24 hours earlier. If the comparison value is zero, any increase counts as a change.
We compare values at the same station at two points in time. If no suitably timed comparison value exists, we omit that statement. An unchanged value does not mean a seasonal normal or an all-clear. Changes below the displayed precision are also described as stable.
Past 30 days at a glance
NormalMedian of available daily means: 4.2 m³/s · 30 days in the comparison window.
The current individual value is compared with available daily means from the last 30 complete days, using Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for day boundaries. Min. and max. refer to daily means, not individual peaks. A day counts when values exist; gaps can affect its mean. For model series, this compares model values. “High” refers to this short window, not an official danger level or a seasonal normal.

Understanding readings at Simme, Oberwil
Discharge in m³/s is the volume passing a cross-section each second. It is neither current speed nor water depth. Compare the same station over time; the difference between two stations alone is not a measurement of intervening inflow.
Check the time and source first, then the chart and unit. Missing or disrupted readings cannot support a reliable current assessment. A short comparison describes recent changes, not flood probability. Follow official warnings and local instructions for safety decisions.
