Northwest Fishing Reports

Where do you get your river flows on line?

Please post up the URL's.

This is what I use.

anyone else who is showing streamflow is probaly pulling there data from this site

Interesting... I have seen multiple sites and there is only one here. LOL!!!

As someone mentioned... the link posted is the source data that any other river flow data supplier would use... why not just go to the source?

Same with coastal weather forecasts, NOAA is the source data and yet a dozen or more outfits extrapolate NOAA's data and call it their own.... They don't always read the same, between NOAA and the others. The further from the source, the more corrupt the data could be. Stick with the source, it'll be the most accurate the majority of the time.

Since the only stations on rivers are controlled by one agency, there are not a lot of websites. The only other one I know of that tries to predict flow is NOAA. http://www.nwrfc.noaa.gov/rfc/

I use the NOAA site, then bookmark each river I follow, here are a few...
Skykomish: http://www.nwrfc.noaa.gov/river/station ... .cgi?GLBW1
Nooch: http://www.nwrfc.noaa.gov/river/station ... ?lid=WYDW1
Stilli: http://www.nwrfc.noaa.gov/river/station ... ?lid=ARLW1
Cow @ Castlerock: http://www.nwrfc.noaa.gov/river/station ... ?lid=CASW1

That works...

Now I have to find one or two for my phone.

Thanks everyone.

I've got a decent one on mine that shows current levels but not predictions. Stop by my desk and I can show it to you..

Will do
