There is a new water alert feature where you can go on the Internet and subscribe to a service that will send text alerts to your phone or email when the river gets to a certain point to help folks decide if they want to stay or leave.

The USGS StreaMail system provides a method for you to query a USGS gauging site via email, cell phone (via email or text messaging), or handheld device, such as a Blackberry, for gage height and stream flow. You send your request to StreaMail and in a few minutes you should get a reply showing river stage and stream flow.

You can use StreaMail by using either email or cell-phone text messaging.
