“Premium”

Seems like this should be free for all of the taxes we’ve paid. We built and own those reporting stations, after all.

FAQ

What kind of data does Rivercast provide?

Rivercast provides official flood warnings and alerts from the National Weather Service, river stage height in feet, and river flow rate in CFS when available. It also displays color indicators for river status (normal, rising, flooding), current observations, recent history, and NOAA river forecasts.

How does Rivercast alert me to potential flooding?

The app offers custom push notification alerts that can be set when a river reaches your chosen level. Additionally, the interactive map color-codes river gauges to indicate whether they are at normal levels, approaching flood stage, or above flood stage.

Is Rivercast free to use?

The app is free to download and use, offering core features like real-time data and alerts. However, certain advanced features, such as custom push notification alerts, are available as a premium feature, indicating a freemium or in-app purchase model.

What regions does Rivercast cover?

Rivercast primarily uses official NOAA observation and forecast data, and the river gauges reported are for the USA only. It requires an internet connection for data access.

Can I share river data with others?

Yes, you can share interactive graphs of river data via iMessage, Email, Facebook, and other sharing options. This allows you to easily communicate current river conditions or forecasts with friends, family, or colleagues.
