Wouldn’t it be nice to know what the water conditions at the river or lake were before you leave home? Current water level and flow rates.
The Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Water Resources web site lets you do that.
Real-Time water flow data for 55 different geographic locations. Hundreds of rivers and streams. The web site design allows for several pre-selected data displays or you can custom build one. Gage Height in Feet and Discharge in Cubic Feet per Second are the default charts.
