The Schussen river, which had overflowed in the districts of Kehlen and Brochenzell, led to flooded streets. Over 1300 individuals were requested to vacate their houses on Saturday to ensure their security. By Saturday evening, the water level of the Schussen rose exceedingly, reaching a level of 4.86 meters. This surpassed the river's previous capacity, as its normal depth at that site is a mere 45 centimeters.
