About this page
Creek water levels (stage) measured by OneShoreline's creek gauges, with each gauge's flood thresholds: Flood Monitoring (yellow), Flood Watch (orange) and Flood Warning (red). These are levels on OneShoreline's gauges, not National Weather Service alerts. Use the buttons at the top to switch creeks.
Rainfall at the creek's rain gauges and the Bay tide nearby. Creeks near the Bay rise and fall with the tide, so a rise can come from rain, a high tide, or both.
Measured above the tide table means storms, wind or runoff are pushing the Bay higher than the tide alone. Upcoming high tides will likely run higher too.
