Hello, my family is visiting Venice at the end of May. I can't seem to find any recent info on the water level situation. Has anyone been there recently that can comment? Thank you!

Haven't figured out how this rumor got started. Maybe a clever photographer took a picture of a back canal at low tide during an acqua alta event and got it published in a newspaper with a sensational story. Fake news.

There you have it. You can't find any information because the problem does not exist.
