Station and river observations

METAR/SPECI uses the existing AviationWeather.gov bulk cache over the lower 48 and its margin. NWPS retains only gauges in the existing action-stage-or-above observed list; forecast-only gauges can have no observation. Absence never establishes zero wind, low water, or safe conditions.

Stage in this gauge’s units, not a regional flood depth. Tide/lake gauges remain water levels; datum is not supplied by this feed. Historical observations and the latest forecast keep separate times.

Retained observations: 4; target 24 hours, at most 96 reports per station. Recording began 2026-10-17 06:15:05.234Z; oldest available reading 2026-10-17 05:00:00 UTC.

NWS gauge impact statements
  • 19 ft: Water begins to overflow the road and bridge along Highway 17 at the gage site.
  • 17 ft: As water rises above 17 feet, some homes along Fernbank Road and Highway 17 are at risk of flooding.
  • 16.5 ft: Some lower areas of Fernbank Road will begin to flood.
  • 14 ft: Expansive pasture land and forest area flooding up and down the stream from near Millport to the state line.
  • 13 ft: Most of the pasture land and forest are flooded around the gage site.
  • 12 ft: Area pasture land begins to flood.

Capture times, quality and provenance

Each report keeps its observation time, first capture of this version, and the SHA-256 of the source bulk body. Corrections at the same observation time replace that point and are marked; unrelated bulk-file changes do not freshen a report.

Only observed gauge records enter this history. Forecast maxima and forecast hydrograph points never become observations. A missing datum or unsupported flow value remains unknown.
