USGS WaterFlow

View USGS streamgauge readings and NOAA forecast context with age indicators and thresholds.

Our take

Useful for general river-condition awareness and source cross-checks

Map/state/favorite views and sparklines help distinguish selected gauges.

Keep in mind: Live/every-gauge coverage is not guaranteed; station gaps, delay and thresholds do not establish safe water entry or flood clearance. Follow official warnings.

What you can do

  • Gauge flow/height/temperature detail
  • State/nearby map and seven-day trends
  • Favorites/widgets and high/low alerts

Good for

  • People verifying report time and primary water forecasts

Consider alternatives for

  • Emergency flood warning or a swimming/boating safety decision tool

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 17.0.
  • Live/every-gauge coverage is not guaranteed; station gaps, delay and thresholds do not establish safe water entry or flood clearance. Follow official warnings.

Privacy & permissions

Publisher states no analytics/ads and local favorites; rough nearby queries go to USGS, so location use is not entirely network-free.
