Good app! As the NC OIC of a state Swift Water Rescue Team I use this app to keep track of the river gauges where we train and during flood conditions for response. I would like to see an update where the widget shows both the flow and stage at the same time. Thanks and keep up the great work!

Very smooth product, Shaina. I use the USGS site for fishing and this makes it accessible on the fly, so to speak. Their website displays historical flows. That would be useful here for judging whether current ones are abnormal. Thanks for a useful tool!

The app doesn't have data on the Brachial River near La Push, WA. would be very helpful for the Quilpué People to have access to flood stage data with only one road out and clothe Brachial River. Thanks, Peter
