Hydrologie du Fleuve Sénégal à Podor : progression de 2 cm en 24h, alerte maintenue

This Sunday, October 19, 2025, at 8 a.m., the level of the Senegal River measured at the Quai Elhadj Boubou Sall in Podor stands at 5.69 meters. This is a continuous progression, marked by a rise of 2 centimeters compared to the previous day, when the level was 5.67 meters.

This upward trend is part of a dynamic that began several weeks ago. As a reminder, the alert level set at 5 meters was crossed on September 14, 2025, and since then, the river has continued to rise. For comparison, at the same time last year, the level was 5.63 meters.

Call for vigilance

This prolonged breach of the alert threshold calls for collective action. Populations are urged to exercise extra caution.
