Track Storms with Us
We track rainfall and stream levels when the forecast calls for heavy rain. This includes monitoring different locations along Walnut Creek and Crabtree Creek. We identify flooding conditions during a storm. This helps first responders close roads. And put other safety precautions in place, too.
One of the tools you will find on the page is a Live Flood Gauge Map. It shows stream gauges, camera locations, flood warning signs, floodplain, and weather radar. You can also type in your address to see weather near you.
