Rivercast’s map not only shows where gauges are located, but color-codes them to indicate whether each station is at normal levels, approaching flood stage, or above flood stage.

Tap any location to view the latest observations or open an interactive graph for detailed trends. Pinch or drag to zoom and pan, or tap and hold for precise readings using the crosshair tool.

Customize your hydrographs with personal level markers for bridges, sandbars, rocks, or safe navigation levels. Add favorite gauges for quick monitoring anytime.

Rivercast uses official NOAA observation and forecast data and requires an internet connection for data access. Data is displayed in feet or cubic feet per second (CFS) when available, always shown in your local time.

A trusted tool for boaters, fishermen, property owners, paddlers, scientists, and marine professionals who need clear, reliable river information.

River gauges reported are USA only.

We take our accuracy seriously!

Some Frequently Asked Questions:

Where does Rivercast get its data?
This app uses NOAA sources for its raw data for our custom graphing and mapping solutions. Some locations available only from other agencies (such as USGS) may not appear in this app.

Why does Rivercast sometimes show slightly different flow data (CFS) than USGS?
CFS is a calculated estimate derived from stage height. NOAA and USGS may sometimes use different data models, so results can vary slightly-usually within a few percent. Stage height should always be identical between NOAA and USGS, and designated flood stages are usually based on height in feet.

Why does Rivercast only show observations, but not forecasts, for my river?
NOAA provides forecasts for many, but not all, monitored rivers. Some forecasts are seasonal or only issued during high-water events.

My river gauge was there yesterday, but it’s gone today. Why?
River gauges occasionally have technical issues transmitting data or may even be washed out during flooding. Some are also seasonal. NOAA typically restores data within a few days or weeks.

Can you add location XYZ to your app?
We wish we could! If NOAA doesn’t report data for that location, we unfortunately can’t include it. Rivercast displays all stations that NOAA provides for public use.
